Nadal does not think Sinner has special treatment

The World Anti-Doping Organization (WADA) appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) for a two-year ban on the tournament, and finally the two sides reached a settlement, Sinner accepted a three-month ban that will expire on May 4 and is expected to still participate in the French Open.

When asked about this in an exclusive interview with CNN recently, Nadal first said that because he could not have all the information about the whole thing, he could not give a clear opinion, "First of all, I am 100% convinced that he is innocent, and I don't think Sinner will do something that is not allowed. ”

Nadal also mentioned that he does not think Sinner gets special treatment because of his status as a world champion, "I believe in the whole process, I have been tested for 20 years of my career, and I know how strict every procedure is. I can't say anything more, I can't have another thought, otherwise I might feel like we're in an unfair world, but for that matter, I really believe it's fair. ”
