WADA appeals against acquittal of top-ranked tennis player Jannik Sinner for unintentional anabolic steroid ingestion.

World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) has appealed a ruling that cleared top-ranked tennis player Jannik Sinner of wrongdoing following two positive drug tests for an anabolic steroid. WADA seeks a one to two-year ban, arguing Sinner should be held accountable, although an independent tribunal previously found he was not at fault, as the steroid entered his system unintentionally from a physiotherapist’s spray. The appeal's resolution may not occur before the Australian Open in January.
