Breaking news arrives regarding this year's Laureus Awards. The Academy has just announced in a statement that the nomination of Jannik Sinner for athlete of the year will be withdrawn. The Laureus have not yet made the list of nominees public, which we will know on March 3. However, they believe that, after the Italian's suspension due to doping, it is most appropriate for him not to participate in the Awards in any way. "We have followed this case, the decisions of the relevant global bodies, and, although we take note of the mitigating circumstances involved, we believe that the three-month ban makes the nomination ineligible. Jannik and his team have been informed,” the statement read.
