The International Tennis Integrity Agency (ITIA), the same one that provisionally suspended Simona Halep, will not investigate the case of Novak Djokovic hiding his drink.
The ATP and ITIA have decided not to take any action following a video of Novak Djokovic being served a mysterious drinkduring the tournament in Paris.
Unexpected decision taken by ITIA, the agency that suspended Simona Halep, after the scene of hiding Novak Djokovic’s drink: “They have no intention of investigating!”
Following the strong controversy created by Novak Djokovic and his team, several voices asked the ATP and ITIA to investigate the case, but this will not happen: “ Today it was reported that the ATP and ITIA have no intention of investigate the actions of members of Novak Djokovic’s team in Paris after journalist Damian Reilly shared a video that went viral and falsely accused them,” was the announcement shared on Twitter by the user “Pavvy G”, one of the leaders of NoleFam , one of the most well-known support groups in tennis.
ITIA, as the accuser, and Simona Halep will appear before the Sport Resolutions tribunal
The International Tennis Integrity Agency provisionally suspended Simona Halep for doping, but the Romanian is determined to prove her innocence, at any cost. Simona risks receiving a suspension of up to 4 years, so “Simo” and her lawyers decided to take it step by step.
ITIA, as the accuser, and Simona Halep plus her team will soon appear for the first verdict before the Sport Resolutions tribunal in London. Then this court will issue a sentence, and our athlete will have the right to challenge the decision at the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS).
