Invited to speak on the doping cases involving Jannik Sinner and Iga Swiatek, the American and current 78e world, Bernarda Pera, expressed her doubts regarding the circumstances of these positive tests and the disclosure of these cases by the authorities.
“I don’t know about Iga. She took something she shouldn't have, melatonin or something. And for Sinner and the cream, it's a bit of a stretch for me, especially since I read that other Italian athletes used this excuse for the cream. So they already know they can say that. How is it going? It's not clear to me. And the fact that it hadn't been known for so long. How can you not know that? No one knew anything about him and Iga until they announced it after a few months, and for the rest, everything immediately became public. How was this revealed immediately for Halep and Cilic, and it was covered up, and then it was discovered later? It's a bit silly to me. Obviously, the rules are not the same for everyone”declared Pera to our colleagues at Sports club.
