Nick Kyrgios, sidelined since June 2023 due to injuries, has made his presence felt in tennis through commentary and social media. Recently, he reignited his critique of Jannik Sinner, questioning the World No. 1’s handling of a doping controversy and his coach Darren Cahill’s accolades.

Sinner, involved in a doping case after testing positive for Clostebol in March, maintained his innocence, citing accidental exposure. Despite the incident, he ended 2024 with two Grand Slam titles and eight overall victories. His coach, Darren Cahill, received the Coaching Excellence award, prompting Kyrgios to sarcastically remark, “This is a joke right 😂 – have some class and integrity people.”

Kyrgios also reiterated his stance that doping, intentional or accidental, warrants severe punishment, suggesting Sinner deserved a two-year ban. His sharp critique extended to Iga Swiatek’s recent doping case, further solidifying his uncompromising view on such issues.

While Sinner continues his dominance on the court, the scrutiny from Kyrgios and others casts a shadow over his achievements.
