Imagine if Nadal has an unknown TUE or two?
Probably he has TUE for OCD illness. God only knows what drugs WADA is giving him.

Simone Belis takes adderall and ritalin? lol big-****en-deal!

Have you been following recent news?And what evidence would that be?
Fortunately, in my case, it did the trick although some later blood tests indicated it had had some effect on my thyroid levels and I was told it would take a long while to leave my system. Fortunately again, I have had no symptoms of any side-effects.
I guess I could understand it being prescribed for Venus because she suffers from Sjögren's Syndrome which is an auto-immune disease. So am a bit curious why Serena needs it too.
I guess supporting cheats can make one paranoid . . .Shh, quiet, agenda at work.....

So, Simone Biles has ADHD "illness" and WADA allowed her to take drug for it.
Well, I have a tiredness disease, can I have EPO please.
I have a choker disease on match point, can I have exemption for it too and have what Masha had?
Doping rules is a joke. Just be black on white, WADA. Athletes MUST NOT take any drugs and creepy substance whatsoever. They all should just be allowed to eat white bread and water. All will be equal. Developing countries will have more gold medallists. Nowadays it is mostly only the rich and corrupted can win.
I guess no action for a lifetime would excite any little boy, little boy
Especially one that has no idea what prednisone doeschange your briefs.
Because people refuse to accept their heroes are doping. I think every tennis player is doping, whether it is PEDs or something like caffeine. Until the ITF are replaced with an independent company, I will continue to suspect every player. I find it amusing that so many elite athletes are so sick they need so many drugs to be able to compete.You guys are terribly naive. It amazes me that nearly no one realizes the problem with TUE. There is a huge grey area there and athletes can easily buy doctors to diagnose a fake injury requiring some TUE to use banned PEDs. It is actually a very smart way to dope "legally".
One very telling exemple: Salbutamol, a banned substance, was originally designed to treat asthma and is not banned if the athlete claims a medical exemption for asthmatic conditions. Well, guess what? 20% of US male athletes who competed in the 1996 OG were "treated for asthma".In some sports such as cross country skiing during some edition of the Winter OG, the percentage of athletes pretending to suffer from asthma was as high as 60%.
LOL
Just mega-LOL
Did you read the whole thing - I'm not referring to the Williams sisters only
Just because some 'doctor' approved the doping - doesn't make it legit. That is laughable logic and tragic at best. The system stinks and it's time for it be exposed and hopefully cleansed the same way they're attempting at FIFA
If FIFA and IOC is corrupt, why wouldn't WADA be?
£$¥€¢ is the King.
Justin Gatlin was banned for 2 years for ADHD medication.Simone Belis takes adderall and ritalin? lol big-****en-deal!
LOL - childish insults - is that the intellectual zenith of this TTW behemoth? Are you confessing to being a gym-juicer as well?You can't dope with prednisone, idiot. I'm not interested in the others besides the Williams sisters, I'm talking tennis. The only "news" coming out of this is that Serena is probably battling an Auto-Immune condition herself. The negatives far outweigh the positives when you have to take oral steroids long-term, something I myself am dealing with. You should keep your mouth closed when you don't know what you're on about.
Should have been banned for life - disgraceful, corrupt decisionJustin Gatlin was banned for 2 years for ADHD medication.
LOL - childish insults - is that the intellectual zenith of this TTW behemoth? Are you confessing to being a gym-juicer as well?
Keep burying that head in the sand - it will all pass over.
But Biles isn't a cheat remember, but Gatlin is for the same thing!Should have been banned for life - disgraceful, corrupt decision
That's because she said so on TwitterBut Biles isn't a cheat remember, but Gatlin is for the same thing!
The TUE ran through the Sony Open (Miami) Serena's favorite tournament aside grand slams.I believe prednisone is a steroid and used to stop inflammation and also for autoimmune diseases. Makes sense for Venus with her Srojens which is autoimmune I believe but what's Serena's reason? 2014 wasn't even a good year for her anyway..
You can't dope with prednisone, idiot.
She also used it for the French Open final in 2015. Now we know why she recovered so quickly from the Bacsinszky match.The TUE ran through the Sony Open (Miami) Serena's favorite tournament aside grand slams.
SHE WON IT while on peds.
You can't say it was a bad tournament for her.
2014 she won the US Open,
WTA Tour championship
Miami
Rome Open
Cincinnati
and also Brisbane
Stanford
Not her best year, but it wasn't that bad.
Anyways, you miss the point, and that is she won a tournament while on peds.
But she has ADHD, so it's not doping!!!! A shame so many Olympic Gold medallists from the US suffer from ADHD, but are still dominant at their sport!That's because she said so on Twitter
LOLLOLOLLOLOLOL
Can't believe how gullible the lemmings can be at times
I beg to disagree. Other posters called for @Bartelby to join the discussion (even if their motives were less than generous) & he has.No it's not pedantic and Lewis was not in the leak. Your long rants are boring and tangential and will eventually get this thread moved to the vortex. Whatver. Nothing new is being added to this thread a this point anyway.
She was also extremely sick those 2 weeks so whats your pointShe also used it for the French Open final in 2015. Now we know why she recovered so quickly from the Bacsinszky match.
The infamous case of Carl Lewis:
Carl Lewis has broken his silence on allegations that he was the beneficiary of a drugs cover-up, admitting he had tested positive for banned substances but claiming he was just one of "hundreds" of American athletes who were allowed to escape bans.
"There were hundreds of people getting off," he said. "Everyone was treated the same."
Lewis has now acknowledged that he failed three tests during the 1988 US Olympic trials, which under international rules at the time should have prevented him from competing in the Seoul games two months later.
The admission is a further embarrassment for the United States Olympic Committee, which had initially denied claims that 114 positive tests between 1988 and 2000 were covered up. It will add weight to calls by leading anti-doping officials and top athletes for an independent inquiry into the US's record on drug issues.
Last week Dr Wade Exum alleged that a ban imposed on Lewis after positive tests for three stimulants had been overturned by the USOC when the athlete said he had ingested them mistakenly in a herbal supplement.
Lewis received only a warning after officials ruled that his positive tests were due to "inadvertent" use. Some scientists believe the substances could have been a masking agent for more serious drugs, such as anabolic steroids.
It was the other PEDs that were enhancing his performance though.You can, actually. Lance Armstrong did.

Don't compete then if you're too ill.She was also extremely sick those 2 weeks so whats your point
Anyway back to reading this thread over a morning coffee on the Italian Riviera.... life is good![]()
Actually no you can't, so be seated.
"The list of possible side effects for corticosteroids is long, including weight gain, sudden mood swings, blurred vision, osteoporosis and high blood pressure.
"If steroid use involves high doses and is prolonged (for a few months to several years), an increase in the number of side effects might occur," the clinic's site states."
I know this means a lot to you guys, but sorry to break the bad news to you.
She took most of them out of competition though. She only took some in less than 5 tournaments in the last 6 years if we look at the TUE's.The TUE ran through the Sony Open (Miami) Serena's favorite tournament aside grand slams.

The authorization is supposed to be prior to starting the medication.Appa based on the OP, it was for nine days only (the authorization date is two days after the expiration).
In Venus's case it is a single intramuscular shot.
Feel free to explain why the worlds best doper took them then!
So athletes shouldn't have medical care is that what your sayingDon't compete then if you're too ill.
Funny how she was so ill she couldn't compete without PEDs but still won the trophy including many three setters on a gruelling surface!So athletes shouldn't have medical care is that what your saying
You've lost the argument on that statement
I don't think you understand.Funny how she was so ill she couldn't compete without PEDs but still won the trophy including many three setters on a gruelling surface!
I don't think you understand.
First and foremost that CORTICOSTERIODS AREN'T PEDs
The Williams sisters, The Obama family, and all of BLM and their cohorts will come after your head. On a serious note: You've done the tennis world a huge favor by exposing part of the corruption within the sport, especially on the women's side.Oh and the hackers were Russian. (legit).

Man of steel, I am only talking about the TUE that is shown at the beginning of the thread.She took most of them out of competition though. She only took some in less than 5 tournaments in the last 6 years if we look at the TUE's.
Therein lies the difficulty.You can't dope with prednisone, idiot. I'm not interested in the others besides the Williams sisters, I'm talking tennis. The only "news" coming out of this is that Serena is probably battling an Auto-Immune condition herself. The negatives far outweigh the positives when you have to take oral steroids long-term, something I myself am dealing with. You should keep your mouth closed when you don't know what you're on about.
You have to use " could have",that's the point.If he really did,his application must be one of the most important files in court.BUT,there is no such an application for TUE neither by her doctor nor herself.Maria violated the code, then she deserves the punishment.No it was because poor Maria is either illiterate and couldn't read her email + pamphlet placed in her hand + annually updated website that she is responsible for reviewing; or she chose not to read those things; or she employs incompetent people who didn't read those things. The tragedy was compounded by the fact that her family doctor apparently abandoned her and left her to treat her medical conditions on her own for years. Too bad, because he could have filed a TUE for her as well.
'possible' side effectsActually no you can't, so be seated.

You mean that the hackers are sponsored by Russia government?Serena and Venus do the right thing. The glorious people's government of Russia does the wrong thing.
I'm saying that politics doesn't belong in sport, but it's there regardless.
I hear you ArcspacE, I know how you feel, we are on the same page.Nothing sad here - apart from the blind denial over the years
Time for the truth to come out once and for all
Cheats out!!!
