    Its a massive, massive deal and there are a myriad of opinions on it. Within the tennis ecosystem, trust me...its all anyone is talking about.
    WADA has pushed back on these types of excuses often, but they realized with the money that Sinner was going to pour in to the potential court hearing, if they lost, the whole thing was going to go up in smoke, and there'd be no regulatory enforcement.
    On Sinner's side, he misses two 1000s, which is not insignificant. But yes, doesn't miss any majors.

    But every single player I know feels the system for drug testing within the sport is in shambles. Its really, really bad.
