  • The ITIA (International Tennis Integrity Agency) has taken decisive action against two-time Grand Slam champion Simona Halep, handing her a four-year ban from professional tennis due to violations of the sport’s anti-doping program. 
  • This move follows Halep’s positive test for Roxadustat at the US Open last year, which led to her provisional suspension.
  • With her four-year ban, Simona Halep is ineligible to compete in professional tennis until October 2026, assuming the ruling remains unchallenged. However, there is still a glimmer of hope for Halep. 
  • She has the option to appeal the decision and plans to take her case to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS).
