Jannik Sinner will not be stripped of his US Open crown or any other title.

Sinner won the final grand slam of the year defeating Britain ’s Jack Draper in the semi-finals.

Independent tribunal accepted that the world No 1 bore “no fault or negligence” over two positive tests caused by contamination from a massage by his physiotherapist.

Wada confirmed on Saturday that it had lodged an appeal against that ruling with sport's highest court, the Court of Arbitration for Sport (Cas) Wada is pursuing a ban of “between one and two years”.

Sinner was stripped of the 400 ranking points and 250,000 prize money he earned at March ’s Masters 1000 tournament in Indian Wells.

Nick Kyrgios branded the case ridiculous’ and said it had exposed who his friends and enemies were.

Sinner said he feared it could have been worse, with not all athletes found to have tested positive through contamination avoiding suspension.
