Athletistic / Tennis. Former Russian tennis player Andrei Olkhovsky spoke about the story of former Romanian world number one Simona Halep. She was suspended for four years for anti-doping rule violations.

The tennis player herself intends to file a complaint with the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS). She categorically denies any wrongdoing.

“It’s a complex and confusing question. She says the substance came with food supplements, but it’s her responsibility, you have to carefully monitor the composition of what you take, the same vitamins. There are rules , they are the same for everyone, they found her banned substance, she was disqualified,” Olkhovsky said according to TASS.

The Union of Tennis Professionals released a statement following Halep’s disqualification

Halep tested positive for roxadustat in late 2022.
