Yanina Wickmayer has been issued a year ban from tennis for breaking the drug test rules. In her first public statement after the ban was issued, Yanina Wickmayer offers her side of the story:
“… Yanina Wickmayer says she was never properly informed of the online reporting requirements for drug-testing that led to her one-year ban from the sport.
At a tearful news conference Thursday, the 20-year-old U.S. Open semifinalist accused the World Anti-Doping Agency and Belgian sports authorities of treating her unfairly and ruining her career.”
