In a stunning turn of events, tennis sensation Jannik Sinner has announced his retirement from the sport following a two-year suspension handed down by the International Tennis Federation (ITF).

The ITF confirmed the suspension earlier today, citing a violation of the sport’s code of conduct. While the exact details of the breach remain confidential, the decision has shocked fans and experts, as Sinner was at the peak of his career.
Sinner, currently ranked in the top 10, issued a heartfelt statement announcing his decision to retire. “It’s with a heavy heart that I have decided to step away from tennis. This is not how I envisioned my journey ending, but I respect the decision and will use this time to reflect and focus on other aspects of my life,” he said.
Known for his incredible talent and sportsmanship, Sinner’s career highlights include multiple ATP titles and deep runs in Grand Slam tournaments. His retirement marks a significant loss for the sport, which had seen him as a future Grand Slam champion and a key figure in the next generation of stars.
Fans and fellow players have expressed their shock and sadness at the news, with many taking to social media to show their support for Sinner.
