- World No 1 back from three-month doping ban
- Italian comfortably defeats Mariano Navone 6-3, 6-4
“Lord forgive me, the Sinner is back,” read a pair of T-shirts, complete with AI-generated religious imagery, worn by two exuberant women sporting orange wigs in a crowd of thousands that had amassed outside the Foro Italico’s stadium court an hour before festivities began.
Their joy was reflective of a jubilant night in Rome as Jannik Sinner marked his return to professional tennis after his three-month doping ban with a win on home soil at the Italian Open, closing out a positive performance with a 6-3, 6-4 win over Mariano Navone of Argentina to reach the third round.
