Tennis legend Serena Williams made a surprising statement: If I were a drug-addicted Sinner, I would be banned for 20 years

Tennis legend Serena Williams, who retired in 2022, made a surprising statement a few days ago, bluntly saying that if she fails to pass the drug test in the past like the current Italian world champion Sinner, she will be banned for up to 20 years and even stripped of her Grand Slam title.

Sinner tested positive twice in March last year, and the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) challenged the independent court's acquittal, but in February the two sides reached a settlement that agreed that Sinner would be banned for only three months. "I love this guy and I love the sport." In an interview with Time magazine, Serena Williams said that Sinner is very important in today's tennis world, especially in the post-"Big Three" era men's tennis urgently needs a successor, but the American diva, who has won 23 Grand Slam women's singles titles in her career, also believes that the same situation happened to her, and the ending must be very different, "If I do that, I will be banned for 20 years." Truth be told, my Grand Slam titles will be canceled as well. ”

Sinner, who has three Grand Slam titles in Australia and the US Open, will end on May 4, and the 23-year-old has always insisted on his innocence, but was accidentally contaminated during a massage by a team physiotherapist, a case that has also sparked controversy about his "special treatment". The 43-year-old mother, Williams, stressed that she had been strict with herself in her past career, especially when it came to what she ate into her body, so as not to cause trouble.
