 World number one Jannik Sinner testing positive for Clostebol, a banned anabolic steroid, not once but twice during the Indian Wells Open earlier this year. 

Biggest Doping Scandals in Tennis feat Maria Sharapova, Andre Agassi and Jannik Sinner

World number one Jannik Sinner testing positive for Clostebol, a banned anabolic steroid, not once but twice during the Indian Wells Open earlier this year.

Tennis is no stranger to the glittering spotlight, but it&rsquo;s also seen its share of shadowy controversies. The latest shocker? World number one Jannik Sinner testing positive for Clostebol, a banned anabolic steroid, not once but twice during the Indian Wells Open earlier this year. Despite losing his ranking points and prize money, the decision to let him off without further punishment has left players like Nick Kyrgios and Denis Shapovalov fuming, arguing that the ruling was far too lenient.
This case has reignited the debate around doping in tennis, adding Sinner&rsquo;s name to a list of top players whose careers have been tainted by similar instances. Let&rsquo;s take a look at some of the most infamous doping scandals in tennis history.
Andre Agassi
Andre Agassi, the charismatic former world number one and Olympic champion, shocked the tennis world when it was revealed he had tested positive for crystal meth in 1998, just two years after his Olympic triumph. Initially, the eight-time Grand Slam champion claimed the positive test was due to a spiked drink, a story that led the A-T-P to cancel his three-month suspension. However, in his 2009 autobiography, Agassi came clean, admitting his addiction and that he had lied to avoid the suspension. This revelation raised serious questions about the sport&rsquo;s integrity and the handling of doping cases.
Martina Hingis
Martina Hingis, the Swiss prodigy who became the youngest world number one at just 16, also fell victim to the dark side of the sport. In 2008, Hingis was banned for two years after testing positive for cocaine at Wimbledon in 2007. The scandal prompted her to retire for the second time, though she later made a triumphant return to the sport in 2013. Despite the controversy, Hingis left an indelible mark on tennis, with 25 major titles to her name, including partnerships with Leander Paes and Sania Mirza.
Marin Čilić
2014 U.S. Open champion Marin Cilic also had his run-in with doping authorities. The Croatian tested positive for nikethamide, a banned substance he claimed was accidentally consumed through glucose tablets purchased in France. Initially handed a two-year ban by the ITF, Cilic's suspension was eventually reduced to four months after an appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
Simona Halep
Simona Halep, once the world number one and a two-time Grand Slam champion, found herself embroiled in a doping scandal in 2022 when she tested positive for Roxadustat at the U.S. Open. Her provisional suspension was followed by a second charge in 2023 due to irregularities in her biological passport. The International Tennis Integrity Authority issued a four-year ban, which was later reduced to nine months by the CAS, allowing Halep to return to the court after serving the adjusted duration.
Maria Sharapova
Maria Sharapova, the five-time Grand Slam champion, stunned the world in 2016 when she failed a W-A-D-A drug test at the Australian Open. Sharapova tested positive for Meldonium, a drug she had used for nearly a decade to treat magnesium deficiency; which had been added to W-A-D-A&rsquo;s banned list just that year. Despite her defence that she hadn&rsquo;t been aware of its new status, Sharapova was slapped with a two-year suspension, later reduced by three months on appeal.
These cases reveal the complex and often murky world of doping in tennis. What do you think&mdash;did the punishments fit the crimes? Share your thoughts in the comments below!

Jannik Sinner brought Davis Cup back to Italy after 5 decades 

Jannik Sinner has won Davis Cup title for Italy in nearly five decades. Sinner took beat Alex de Mi&ntilde;aur 6-3, 6-0 in the second singles match of Sunday's final.&nbsp;

Jannik Sinner capped his perfect week by leading Italy to its first Davis Cup title in nearly five decades.
Sinner took his record to 6-0 this week by beating Alex de Mi&ntilde;aur 6-3, 6-0 in the second singles match of Sunday's final, giving Italy a 2-0 win over Australia for its first Davis Cup title since 1976.
Matteo Arnaldi had given Italy the first point with a 7-5, 2-6, 6-4 win over Alexei Popyrin.
The No. 4 Sinner beat top-ranked Novak Djokovic in the singles and doubles matches in Saturday's semifinal showdown against Serbia. The 22-year-old Italian needed 1 hour, 21 minutes to seal Italy's victory against Australia.
Historic Italian Triumph
&ldquo;We are all very young. We are really hungry to try to win it one more time for our life, but having this feeling at least once, it is a really special feeling,&rdquo; said Sinner, who has beaten nine top-10 players since September, though he lost to Djokovic in the ATP Tour Finals a week ago. Arnaldi earlier saved eight break points before getting a break of his own to close out the first match in the decisive third set.
&ldquo;I think I won one of the most important matches of my life,&rdquo; the 44th-ranked Arnaldi said. The Italians, who had never won the title other than in 1976, had lost the three finals it played against Australia, which was last year's runner-up to Canada.
Australia eliminated Finland in the last four this year. The Aussies are 28-time champions but haven't lifted the trophy at men's tennis top team event since captain Lleyton Hewitt was on the winning squad as a player in 2003.
&ldquo;There hasn't been another nation that's gone back-to-back in the last two years, so we are showing a pretty good effort collectively,&rdquo; De Mi&ntilde;aur said.
"We are very, very close. It stinks like hell. We'll be back. We'll get this. I mean, we've got a very, very strong future ahead of us.&rdquo;
Australia this year became just the second nation to win 200 Davis Cup ties, with the United States being the other.
Matteo Berrettini was not in the Italian team because of an injury but he was in Malaga supporting his countrymen.
&ldquo;Thanks to Matteo,&rdquo; Sinner said.
&ldquo;He has had a very tough year (with) a lot of injuries. For all of us, that he came here, it means a lot. He gave us a lot of positive energy.&rdquo;
The final 8 of the Davis Cup Finals will stay in Malaga for another year.
Spain was awarded a wild card Sunday for the group stage in Valencia. This year's finalists, Italy and Australia, also go straight through to the group stage in September. So does Great Britain, which lost to Serbia in the quarterfinals.
The women's Billie Jean King Cup Finals will remain in the southern Spanish city of Seville next year.&nbsp;
