World No. 82 Daniel Altmaier believes that Jannik Sinner is not guilty of violating anti-doping rules. Previously, the Italian was suspended for three months for clostebol, and he will be able to return to the Tour at the Rome Masters in May.
`I spoke with Jannik personally – he doesn`t seem like a guy who would intentionally violate anything. It was probably an accident. I think that with many who get caught doping, it was an accident. I don`t believe that many players intentionally use doping.
Sometimes you`re just unlucky. But everyone should be treated equally – regardless of whether you are ranked 100th or 1000th. This must be strictly observed. I understand why many are disappointed. In Sinner`s case, I repeat, I don`t think he did anything intentionally,` says Altmaier.
