<p>World No. 1 Jannik Sinner rehired Umberto Ferrara as his fitness coach just under a year after firing him for his role in his doping case.</p>
<p>Sinner, the reigning Wimbledon champion, parted ways with Ferrara and physiotherapist Giacomo Naldi following the investigation into his two positive tests for clostebol. The 23-year-old Italian said at the time that he was "not feeling that confident to continue with them."</p>
<p>Sinner, however, apparently had a change of heart after recently moving on from fitness coach Marco Panichi and physiotherapist Ulises Badio.</p>
<p>"The decision has been made in alignment with Jannik's management team as part of ongoing preparations for upcoming tournaments, including the Cincinnati Open and U.S. Open," Sinner's team said in a statement. "Umberto has played an important role in Jannik's development to date, and his return reflects a renewed focus on continuity and performance at the highest level."</p>
<p>Sinner agreed to a three-month ban from tennis for violating anti-doping rules on Feb. 15.</p>
<p>He was sanctioned in August with minimal penalty after two positive tests for clostebol, a banned anabolic steroid. At the time, the International Tennis Integrity Agency said Sinner was not at fault.</p>
