Iga Świątek: Zawieszenie za doping przedłużone do 6 miesięcy przez WADA. Czytaj więcej👇👇👇👇

MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) — Iga Swiatek’s one-month suspension for failing a drug test will not be appealed by the World Anti-Doping Agency because her explanation “is plausible,” WADA announced on Monday.

WADA released its decision just minutes after Swiatek, a five-time Grand Slam champion and former No. 1-ranked women’s tennis player, sealed a 6-0, 6-1 victory against Eva Lys to reach the Australian Open quarterfinals.

“Well, for sure, I’m just satisfied that I can get closure, kind of,” Swiatek said, “and I can just move on and finish this whole process, because I just want to play tennis and focus on the tournament.”

Unlike the Swiatek case, WADA did appeal the exoneration of current men’s No. 1 Jannik Sinner and a hearing is scheduled to be heard at the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) in Lausanne, Switzerland, in April.

Sinner was not suspended because the International Tennis Integrity Agency (ITIA) determined he was not negligent for two positive tests for an anabolic steroid in March.

The resolution of Swiatek’s case was made public by the ITIA in late November. She already had been sidelined provisionally, missing three tournaments in October, and finished her ban during the sport’s offseason.
