The Flemish anti-doping agency's appeal of the lifting of Yanina Wickmayer's two-year ban from professional tennis will be heard in April of 2011. At that time, the agency--which wanted a one-year ban--will appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport, the body which lifted the ban so that Wickmayer could play on the tour.
The World Anti-Doping Agency, which called for the two-year ban, is also appealing the lifting of the suspension. Both bodies will make their arguments to the CAS, and then a decision will be made regarding Wickmayer's future.
Just saw this. Why are they waiting until 2011 instead of 2010?
ReplyDeleteMaybe they're hoping it will blow over? I really don't know, Sunny. I hope it does blow over. Enough.
