We were soooo close to wrapping this season, but we’ll always change the schedule for a doping story. The news of Iga Swiatek testing positive for a banned substance provoked shock, confusion, and even resignation among tennis watchers who are, by the day, becoming more versed on the fine details of doping cases. Our immediate questions were: Is the story plausible? Why is the suspension broken into pieces? When should news like this be made public? As always, we like to dive into the report itself, making sure we’ve got the facts straight before offering any hot takes. Later, we try to answer a few of our own questions, touching on player reactions and the danger of comparing one case to another.
1:35 GoFundMe Update
3:25 Iga Swiatek tests positive for trimetazidine in Cincinnati, gets a 1-month non-consecutive suspension
9:05 A timeline to make sense of things
13:10 Iga’s team sends a boatload of evidence to the ITIA
17:30 What’s the difference between No Fault or Negligence and No Significant Fault of Negligence?
31:30 Public disclosure: balancing a player’s privacy with building transparency and trust
36:05 Tara Moore has a more legitimate beef than most
42:30 Simona said this case is identical to hers (it is not)
