Australian tennis star Nick Kyrgios appeared to aim another dig at Jannik Sinner after the Italian's Wimbledon triumph.

Sinner, 23, secured his maiden Wimbledon title on Sunday afternoon after a stunning performance against Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz.

Two-time defending champion Alcaraz won the first set but Sinner proved too good in the end as he came away 4-6, 6-4, 6-4, 6-4 winner.

As a result, the Italian has won his second Grand Slam title of the 2025 season, having won the Australian Open in Melbourne earlier in the year.

Taking to social media after the match, Sinner posted a picture of him kissing the iconic Wimbledon trophy, with a caption that read: "Living in my dream. Thank you!!!"

Immediately after the final concluded, controversial figure Kyrgios appeared to aim a dig at Sinner's victory by simply posting an asterisk on X.

Fans were convinced Kyrgios' tweet was linked to the three-month doping ban Sinner served earlier in the year.

Back in August 2024, it was reported by the BBC that Sinner “tested positive for low levels of a metabolite of clostebol - a steroid that can be used to build muscle mass”.

At the time, the International Tennis Integrity Agency (ITIA) stated that Sinner had been contaminated with the substance by his physiotherapist, after he had been applying an over-the-counter spray in Italy to a cut in his own hand before carrying out treatments on the 23-year-old.

After posting the asterisk, Kyrgios appeared to fire another brutal dig at Sinner by reposting a tweet that read: "Congratulations to Clostebol & Trimetazidine!"

While clostebol was the substance Sinner tested positive for, Trimetazidine was linked to the winner of the ladies' singles, Iga Swiatek, who beat Amanda Anisimova 6-0, 6-0 in 57 minutes on Saturday afternoon.

Swiatek was banned for one month after testing positive for trimetazidine, a medication used to treat heart conditions that, in a sporting context, can increase blood flow and improve endurance.

The Polish star was found to have been 'at the lowest end of the range for no significant fault or negligence'.

Explaining her case, Swiatek stated that her violation was caused by 'a contaminated supply of the non-prescription medication melatonin, which she uses to help with jet lag and sleep issues'.
