SPORT: WORLD NO.2 SWIATEK SUSPENDED ONE MONTH OVER POSITIVE DOPING TEST
After persuading the International Tennis Integrity Agency that the drug test was not deliberate, French Open winner Iga Swiatek avoided a one-month suspension, the ITIA said Thursday.
In August 2024, Swiatek from Poland tested positive for the illegal drug trimetazidine (TMZ) in an out-of-competition sample; nevertheless, the ITIA acknowledged that the positive result was due to contamination.
