World number one Jannik Sinner announced yesterday the creation of a foundation in his name aimed at “empowering children through education and sports”, six days out from the Italian’s return to action after a doping ban.

The Jannik Sinner Foundation “will support sports programmes, school projects and community initiatives to make sports and education more accessible to the next generation” in Italy and abroad.

“For me, it’s an honour to support children and young athletes,” said Sinner in a statement.
