Ex-Spartak doctor says Nadal shouldn’t be suspected of doping because of Roland Garros win

Former chief medical officer “Spartacus” Mikhail Vartapetov reacted to doping allegations against the tennis player Rafael Nadal .

On Sunday June 5, the Spaniard became the winner of Roland Garros for the 14th time in his career, beating Norway’s Kasper Ruud (6:3, 6:3, 6:0) in the final of the tournament. Nadal played in the tournament with an aggravated leg injury.

– No injection is doping unless it is on WADA’s Prohibited List, which is updated annually. Non-narcotic analgesics, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, local anesthetics have never been considered doping. They provide no advantage over other athletes in any sport by any route of administration. No reason to suspect him [Надаля] There are no banned substances in use. It’s just that he is a great athlete, – Vartapetov is cited by the “Championship”.

It is known that Nadal, before the start of Roland Garros, took a course to destroy nerves with the help of radio frequencies.

— The radiofrequency method of influencing the nerve is one of the permitted types of conservative therapy. In the case of Nadal, I cannot say for sure the recovery time, since everything is individual, you need to know the exact diagnosis, medical history and current condition, added Vartapetov.

Nadal, 36, is a 22-time Grand Slam singles winner.
