Wada\u2019s statement suggests it is not questioning Sinner\u2019s explanation, but does believe he shares some of the blame.<\/p>\n
The Court of Arbitration for Sport will now need to decide whether the world number one should be held in any way responsible for a sequence of events which began with his physio using a spray to treat a cut on his finger.<\/p>\n
The spray, which contained clostebol, had been passed on by Sinner\u2019s fitness coach, who had been brought into the team partly because of his anti-doping expertise.<\/p>\n
Gloveless massages – with hands which may or may not have been washed – and lesions on Sinner\u2019s skin resulted in the two positive tests, the tribunal determined.<\/p>\n
While Sinner is free to play on, the case could take many months to resolve.<\/p>\n
The International Tennis Integrity Agency appealed to Cas in January against the decision to exonerate Tara Moore of doping, and the hearing is still to be scheduled.<\/p>\n
Whether Sinner’s case is fast-tracked because of its high profile nature remains to be seen.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
