Sharapova Banned
http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/tennis/36482288
Going to be precious few Russians about in sport if the alleged doping abuses result in more and more bans.

Re: Sharipova Banned
If one cheats then one has to expect the consequences if they get caught.

Re: Sharipova Banned
I think she may have been badly advised rather than deliberate cheating seeing as the "drug" was quite legal until recently.
Still examples must be set.

She has been using it (supposedly for a heart condition) for 10 years, it was only added to the banned list on Jan 1st this year. Doesnt really seem like deliberate cheating to me.

Re: Sharapova Banned
IIRC she didn't open a email from WADA that had a updated list of banned drugs.
A few years back a guy had been using a UK Vicks nasal inhaler, and bought a replacement in the USA, but didn't know it has a banned ingredient.

Yes indeed you are right as it was not deliberate cheating but from what l have read she was told time and time again that it was going on the banned list of drugs from this year but still continued to take it thus ignoring the new drugs guidelines.

Re: Sharapova Banned
It was deliberate cheating. It may not have been on the banned list, but she took the drug to enhance her performance. It wasn't a dodgy food supplement, it was a medical drug usually prescribed to people with true medical conditions. The date the ban started was arbitrary. It could have been a month or a year earlier.

Re: Sharapova Banned
The statement said that she has no current medical reason for using the drug. So if she has no medical need for it, she is a drugs cheat. Now if we can only get rid of Andy Murray like this then I'll be happy.
