Poland’s Kamil Majchrzak stated he had failed a drug check, including that he had not knowingly taken a banned substance and that the information was “the biggest shock”.
No. 77 Majkrjak, who gained a Challenger Tour occasion in Busan, South Korea in October and reached the semi-finals of an ATP 250 occasion in Pune, India earlier this yr, didn’t present additional particulars in regards to the banned substance.
“I have some incredibly sad and difficult news to share with everyone. I have tested positive in an anti-doping control during October and November 2022.”
“First of all, I’ve by no means knowingly taken any banned substance. Right now I do not know what has occurred and that is the largest shock.
“I have begun the toughest fight of my life – the fight to prove my innocence and return to the sport I love.”
The International Tennis Integrity Agency (ITIA) didn’t instantly reply to an emailed request for remark.
