Renowned British tennis player Jack Draper has publicly supported world number one Jannik Sinner amid the doping allegations that led to Sinner accepting a three-month suspension.

Sinner, a three-time Grand Slam champion, agreed to the suspension in collaboration with the World Anti-Doping Agency after initially being cleared by a tribunal following two positive tests.

Despite the setback, Draper highlights Sinner as a genuine and kind individual. The pair recently trained together in France, and Draper is eager for Sinner's return to the tennis circuit, noting the sport has missed his presence.
