# Tennis: World number one Jannik Sinner has insisted that he did not receive preferential treatment from anti-doping authorities as he prepares for his return to action at next week’s Italian Open in Rome. This follows a three-month ban which caused anger among a section of the men’s tennis tour. Both the International Tennis Integrity Agency and the World Anti-Doping Agency accepted that he did not gain any competitive advantage from the banned substance, and that he bore no fault for an accidental contamination.
