Verdict on Sharapova appeal set for October

THE Court of Arbitration for Sport said yesterday it would deliver an appeal verdict on the two-year doping ban for Maria Sharapova in early October.

The 29-year-old Russian tested positive for the banned medication meldonium during January’s Australian Open. In a severe blow to her reputation, the infringement was revealed in March. “The CAS will issue its decision in the arbitration procedure between Maria Sharapova and the International Tennis Federation (ITF) during the first week of October 2016,” CAS said in a statement sent from its Lausanne headquarters.
