Simona Halep said she will “fight for the truth” after the former World No 1 and Wimbledon champion was provisionally suspended from tennis for testing positive for a banned substance at this year’s US Open.
A statement from the International Tennis Integrity Agency said Halep failed a doping test after her sample contained the anti-anemia drug Roxadustat, which is a prohibited substance on the World Anti-Doping Agency’s list.
