Simona Halep criticizes ITIA

[Bill Tilden]

In the end, Halep took nine months with an altered and suspect biological passport, a contamination not found with certainty and the amount of Roxadustat so high as to hypothesize a source other than the supplement. And they complain

Simona is just bitter Iga got away with it

If people think that all these players are genuine doping cheats, why would you even want to watch this sport? This is destroying the image of tennis. If these top players are just being protected but they’ll ruin someone like Simona Halep it makes me not want to watch this sport that I love.

Sinner and now Swiatek have really started to destroy my faith in tennis. ITIA needs to be overhauled. And time to throw the book at Sinner and Swiatek too.

Well yeah? Wouldn’t you complain and be bitter? Why is Halep the scapegoat while these dirty dopers get away with it too (as you say?). These two have really damaged the sport of tennis.

Halep's case was far more egregious than Iga's, and she's making a fool of herself claiming some great injustice has been done to her. They're both lying cheats.

"more egregious" by 3 years and 11 months

Halep got originally banned for 4 years while Swiatek for one month

More egregious as in her doping was more egregious. And relax - it was just a humorous comment.

You are ridiculous. They did not find the cause of the contamination, altered biological passport and she is a scapegoat? A bunch of incompetents these are including her staff

The ITIA butchered Halep so bad they had to pay her legal fees and apologize for how they treated her.

They ruined her career but have bent over backwards for Sinner and Swiatek. And I do suspect the reason is they were scared they'd damage Sinner or Swiatek the way they destroyed Halep.

No wonder why Halep is so pissed off. Nearly 2 years benched, career ruined, name dragged through the mud straight away. But how about the other two? Secrecy, silent ban or no bans at all, return to action, no drama. Easy to go.

Ridiculous? Ridiculous was the obvious double standards Halep points out. ITIA literally had to pay her legal fees because they ruined her and got it wrong.
