The suspension of the Australian player, a double specialist, Max Purcell, of course, made Doctor Jean – Pierre de Mondenard, renowned specialist on topics related to doping in sport, react.
In particular, it castigates the ITIA (the International Agency for the Integrity of Tennis) which, according to him, has only reduced sorrows rather than staying firm.
“With ITIA, an independent AD agency for tennis, we are used to minimalist sanctions. Sinner bleached but 3 months by AMA, Swiatek, 1 month and now Purcell 18 months instead of 4 years. And R. Nadal, never worried about his repeated injections. Nice itia! »»
Visibly disgusted, the doctor goes further this time by recalling the “reserved” treatment to Rafael Nadal. His remarks will be understood as a real attack on the one who raised 22 Grand Chelem titles and in particular 14 to Roland – Garros.
