Wow.....a one month suspension for Iga Swiatek.......
World number two and five-time Grand Slam champion Iga Swiatek has accepted a one-month suspension after testing positive for a banned substance.
The 23-year-old reigning French Open champion tested positive for a heart medication, trimetazidine (TMZ), in an out-of-competition sample in August 2024, when she was world number one.
The International Tennis Integrity Agency (ITIA) confirmed on Thursday an investigation determined the source was a contaminated regulated medication.
It therefore ruled Swiatek bore no significant fault or negligence for the failed test.
Wonder whatever happened to all that suspension talk of Sinner??
