- Serb says players think some get preferential treatment
- Calls for governing bodies to ‘have a better approach’
Novak Djokovic has called for anti-doping rules in tennis to change in the light of Jannik Sinner’s recent case and he says that he understands why players have questioned whether doping cases are treated equally.
“There is a lot of issues in the system,” Djokovic said. “We see a lack of standardised and clear protocols. I can understand the sentiments of a lot of players that are questioning whether they are treated the same. Hopefully the governing bodies of our sport will be able to learn from this case and have a better approach for the future. Collectively there has to be a change, and I think that’s obvious.”
