Australian tennis player Nick Kyrgios, the runner-up at Wimbledon 2022, has expressed his thoughts on the recent positive doping test of Poland's Iga Swiatek, currently ranked second in the world.
OUR SPORT IS COOKED. The excuse that we can all use is that we didn’t know. Simply didn’t know. Professionals at the highest level of sport can now just say ‘we didn’t know’
Nick Kyrgios
Recently, the International Tennis Integrity Agency (ITIA) announced that Swiatek tested positive for a banned substance in August. It was later revealed that her sleep medicine was contaminated.
It is worth noting that during her one-month suspension, the Polish athlete missed three tournaments.
