Long ban for tennis star Vondroušová
128
Markéta Vondroušová has a big punishment. She cannot play tennis for 4 years. The ITIA decided this on Monday. The ITIA checks the fairness in tennis. In December, a man came for a Doping-test. Vondroušová did not let the man in. She did not give a sample. The ITIA says: A missed test is like Doping. The player says: I was very afraid. A stranger came to my house. He had no ID card. She thought about Petra Kvitová. A man hurt Kvitová in her house in 2016. Vondroušová says: My mind is very tired. Doctors found an Angst-Störung. The ITIA does not believe her. The ban ends in June 2030. Vondroušová can fight against the decision. She can go to the CAS. She won Wimbledon in 2023.
