Now the date for the questioning of tennis world number one Jannik Sinner regarding the doping case is clear.

It will not be until April, the 16-17, before the Italian will be questioned by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (Cas).

Sinner tested positive for anabolic steroids last year, but was acquitted by tennis's international testing organization, which considered it to be contamination.

The World Anti-Doping Agency (Wada) has appealed the decision to Cas and has demanded that the proceedings be held behind closed doors.

The Italian world number one is currently preparing for the Australian Open, the year's first Grand Slam tournament, where he is the reigning champion.
