Top 10 World Sports News Events In 2025

Italian tennis star Jannik Sinner became the center of a global doping debate after the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) announced a three-month ban on February 15. Sinner had tested positive twice in March 2024 for prohibited substance clostebol. Although the International Tennis Integrity Agency initially ruled that he bore "no fault or negligence," WADA appealed before ultimately reaching a settlement with the player. The sanction drew criticism from several fellow players, who argued it was too lenient, while WADA emphasized transparency and pointed to a rise in contamination-related cases across sports. This file photo taken on May 10, 2025 shows Jannik Sinner reacting before the men's singles round of 64 match between Jannik Sinner of Italy and Mariano Navone of Argentina at the ATP Italian Open in Rome, Italy.
