Two-time Grand Slam winner Simona Halep was given a long-term ban on Tuesday. Because of a positive doping test and irregularities in the athlete’s passport, the 31-year-old will be excluded from the tennis tour for four years.
As a result, a dispute arises between tennis players, in which Nick Kyrgios once again takes part. The Australian writes in a discussion on “X”: “I would guess that I would have won five Grand Slams if I took things like that.”
Top ten player Maria Sakkari had previously described the anti-doping agency’s treatment of athletes as appalling. The Greek woman said in an interview: “Soon we won’t even be allowed to take electrolytes anymore. I’m very careful about anything that has to do with nutritional supplements.”
A statement that Nick Kyrgios can only laugh at. He answers: “Not really. I function in five-set matches thanks to bananas and cola – the success speaks for itself.” Accordingly, the 28-year-old thinks: “Maybe players should just stop taking dubious shit.”
In the end you have to be able to look in the mirror and say that you did everything right. “It’s not difficult,” says Kyrgios.
