Jannik Sinner: bitter rant by Marcell Jacobs

"When you win someone will always turn their nose up at it, look at Jannik Sinner": è bitter outburst to La Repubblica by Italian sprinter Marcell Jacobs, who commenting on the espionage case against him likened his figure to that of the number one world tennis player. "That I won the 100 meters at the Olympics was a bit of a bother, even though I was not a complete unknown. And certainly my victories created some ill-feeling".

"Both Jannik and I have been accosted with doping,” Jacobs continued.”

For him, too, every moment è always good to subject him to criticism. And that aspect will always be there when you are successful because someone will always turn their nose up at your results. And so you just have to stay focused on yourself".

"In the end I have nothing to hide. But I would show you my analyses so you can see if they are positive or not. I thought that rivalryà ended on the track. I thought it didn’t have to go beyond the adrenaline that you get in those moments and the challenge that you experience lì".

"My feeling è that Filippo Tortu all of this really did not know about it, that it was orchestrated without his knowledge. But it remains a very serious matter and we will wait for justice to take its course".
