Tennis veteran Serena Williams hosted the 2024 ESPY Awards, celebrating the best athletes, games and moments of the year.
Although it has not played a competitive match since the 2022 US Open, tennis legend Serena Williams still follows the game with a passion.
The 23-time Grand Slam singles champion number 1-ranked male player is a major fan of Janik Sinner, who is the US Open Champion, who won the second Australian Australian Open in January. However, the sinner is currently serving a three-month suspension after a positive test last year for a performance-growing substance.
One in Extensive interview With Time Magazine – Publication that named him one of the 100 most influential people in the world – Williams said that the sinner is a “magnificent personality” and “great for the game.”
But he also created a point to mention, “If I did so, I got 20 years. Let’s be honest. I must have found the Grand Slam taken away from me.”
As a way of explanation, Williams indicates one of his one of his contemporaries on the WTA tour, Maria Sharapova, who received a two-year ban for doping in 2016-The circumstances around their positive tests were similar to that of the sinner.
“I can’t help, but think of Maria at this time,” Williams said.
Both Sharapova and Sinner stated that they were unknowingly given banned substances, which led to unsuccessful tests. Sharapova finally reduced his suspension to 15 months, while Sinner is currently serving a three -month ban that would not force him to remember this year’s Grand Slam tournament.
