Default Which players do you believe have taken PEDs ?

What I am suggesting is that those great with the stats post those stats of listed players so that we may compare their peak performances.

IMO I think that all of this is silly and that no major tennis stars are using PEDs, however others have made accusations.

All of the top 10, plus most of the top 100.

Serving faster than 130 mph? Please. Obviously PEDs.

I voted for Mardy Fish. Now way he gets to no 10 in the world in this strong era.

Where is the Agassi choice?!?!?

No way you guys actually think a late career revival, by an American post age 29, which coincided directly with the zenith of Major League Baseball's steroid problem, where multiple people were hitting 70+ Home Runs a year. Not to mention the guy admitted in his book that he took recreational drugs. Natural psychology dictates that people tend to spill half truths, in attempt to cover up the 'worse half'.

"Yeah, I did recreational drugs....I'll admit that, so you think that If I were taking PEDs, I would have probably admitted that too, you guys trust me, right?

Just wait until Milos Raonic breaks the top 10, of course his serve will be due to PEDs #JustSayin'

We are looking for you to substantiate that assertion to at least some degree.

No vote needed, he admitted to taking drugs.

THE OP surely picked Federer and I surely picked Nadal.

Still I don't think any of them took it....it won't help plus there aren't great masking drugs avaliable. If there were...ATP would find out anyways. These players have their pride and drugs can only make you powerful and fast but they can never make you think better on the court.

Masking drugs aren't necessary if you stay under the testing limits, which happen to be 6 times over adult male averages. Only than do they order further testing.

I want to know which posters have taken PED. I start. I have taken a PWO (bought legally over the counter) which contains DMAA. Bad, isn't it?

This ain't a damn democracy.

Everyone is guilty until they retire.

Innocent until proven guilty is for criminal prosecution, We can consider this a civil matter all that is necessary is preponderance above a 50% chance.

LMAO, fish is doping according to the poll.

Fish?

Weren't you supposed to have big muscles to be on PED?

Why isn't Gasquet up there? He actually took cocaine. I don't buy his kissing story. Gasquet is a cheat. I say, ban him forever.

I say all of the above mentioned players should be under suspicion.

Bans all round until they can prove their innocence.
