Maria Sharapova |
The 28 year old former world number just announced that she has been tested positive to a drug MELDONIUM which she had been taking since 2006 but thethe drug substance in question was banned only recently in January 2016.
Sharapova, a five-time Grand Slam champion, said she was not yet aware of the sanctions she will face."I failed the test and take full responsibility for that," said Sharapova, who won Wimbledon as a 17-year-old in 2004.
"I had been taking this medicine for the past 10 years, but on 1 January this became a prohibited substance which I did not know."
Let us keep our fingers crossed and watch while we pray for her to come through this trying moment.
