By Howard Fendrich, The Associated Press on August 20, 2024.
Top-ranked tennis player Jannik Sinner tested positive twice for a banned anabolic steroid in March and was stripped of prize money and points earned at a tournament in Indian Wells, California, but will not be suspended because an independent tribunal said it was not intentional. The International Tennis Integrity Agency announced the case on Tuesday. Sinner won the Cincinnati Open on Monday and will be among the favorites at the U.S. Open, which starts in New York next week. ___ AP tennis: https://apnews.com/hub/tennis 6-5
