Maria Sharapova Announces Failed Doping Test
Maria Sharapova said Monday that she had been notified by the International Tennis Federation that she tested positive for a banned substance at the Australian Open in January.
She said she had been taking Mildronate since 2006. Mildronate is also known as Meldonium, which was added to the prohibited list this year.
Sharapova said she received an email from the World Anti-Doping Agency in December that noted changes to tennis’s program for 2016. She said that the email included a link to a list of banned substances, but that she did not look at it.
Last fall, WADA said Meldonium was included on the prohibited list because of evidence of its use by athletes with the intention of enhancing performance. Sharapova is at least the seventh athlete to test positive for the drug this year.
No penalty has yet been announced for Sharapova.
Sharapova, 28, is one of tennis’s biggest stars and has been the highest-paid female athlete for 11 straight years.
She won five Grand Slam singles titles and claimed each of the four majors — the Australian Open, the French Open, Wimbledon and the United States Open — at least once. Her most recent Grand Slam title came at the French Open in 2014.
Sharapova had right shoulder surgery to repair two rotator cuff tears in 2008 and had more shoulder problems in 2013 that she attributed to bursitis, tendinitis and a bone bruise. She is currently sidelined with a forearm injury and has played only four events in the last eight months: three WTA tournaments and the 2015 Fed Cup final.
Her last match was a quarterfinal loss to Serena Williams at the Australian Open in January.
