“I’m happy with how I handled the situation.” Sinner on first win after doping scandal

The world’s first racket Jannik the fisherman said he was pleased with his performance in the first round match at the US Open.

At the start of the US Open, Sinner defeated American Mackenzie McDonald, ranked 140th in the world. The match ended with a score of 2:6, 6:2, 6:1, 6:1.

Sinner is hosting the first tournament since the results of the investigation into two positive doping tests for clostebol were made public. The 23-year-old tennis player avoided disqualification by successfully proving that the banned substance had entered his system unintentionally.

– Yes, a difficult match. First matches are never easy. It took me a while to find the rhythm, but I’m really happy to have won. I hope it will give me confidence for the next match.

— The other day you said that the news of what had happened to you was a relief for you, that it was a kind of burden for you.

“I think the reaction from the fans has been wonderful. Even when the news came out, there was a lot of support, which I’m very happy about.

It’s still a little bit, you know, not easy. You have to take it day by day. So I’m just happy to be here. And I’m just trying to take it one day at a time.

— You said earlier that you weren’t sure how this whole thing would affect your reputation.

– Yes, I was curious to see what the reaction of the fans would be, but it was very positive. I was very happy.

“I’m happy with the way I handled this situation, it wasn’t easy. Let’s see what happens in the next round,” Sinner said at a press conference.
