I thinks its crazier that Tennis has a system where they only notify someone of a prescription drug going onto the banned substance list, via email. The fukk?
I get paid to check emails and I STILL don't do it all the time.
Cliffnotes:
- Sharapova has taken a prescription pill for over 10yrs
- Tennis Board has always been aware of her taking medication.
- Tennis Board said its always been fine.
- Tennis Board decides could possibly have performance enhancement properties.
- Tennis Board decides to ban medication Jan 1st.
- Tennis Board sends email to Sharapova.
- Sharapova did not check email.
- Routine tests are performed in Jan.
- Sharapova test positive.
- Sharapova gets suspended.
- Tennis Board knows she did not take drug for PE.
- Tennis Board basically said "bytch should've checked her emails."
Overall, whether you like the woman or not, thats a pretty fukked up process that couldve easily happened to Serena or any other player. They need a better way to relay important potentially career ending information like that than a fukking email just a few days beforehand.
