Jannik Sinner and Iga Swiatek have been heavily criticized after their Wimbledon victory due to their past doping suspensions. This year's winners of the Wimbledon grass court classic, Jannik Sinner and Iga Swiatek, are criticized for their past. Sinner (three months) and Swiatek (one month) had to serve a doping ban.
Both were even threatened with longer sentences, but these were rejected. Nick Kyrgios is now lashing out at the duo on social media. "The Wimbledon finals don't reflect well on the sport. The two shouldn't be here at all." On March 10 and 18, 2024, Sinner was found to have traces of the steroid Clostebol.
A court found no fault or negligence on the part of the world number one, who had to answer for the misconduct of his support staff. Sinner is said to have come into contact with the banned substance through a massage. Swiatek had tested positive for the performance-enhancing drug trimetazidine on August 12, 2024.
The world number three credibly blamed a dose of contaminated melatonin. At least on the dance floor, the two cut a fine figure. As usual, Sinner challenged Swiatek to a dance-off in London. The two were visibly in good spirits as they danced to Dua Lipa's "Levitating."
