is currently under a ban for violating anti-doping regulations. The Romanian athlete was prohibited from participating in professional tournaments as of September last year. However, she appealed the decision and was granted an opportunity to present her defense in court. Notably, her trial commenced ten days ago.
Amidst this mentally exhausting incident, which has had a significant impact on her career and well-being, Halep finds herself once again in the spotlight. However, this time it is not due to the doping case, but rather a glimpse of her enjoying the sport she is passionate about.
On Monday, the 32-year-old shared a photograph on her Instagram account. The image captured her delivering powerful shots under the warm sunlight.
Although she did not provide a caption, she included an emoji to accompany the photo. Despite being banned from professional tennis, Halep consistently strives to stay connected to the sport.
Halep recently filed a lawsuit against a Canadian supplement company during the ongoing trial, seeking a sum of approximately $10 million. The former World No. 1 had consumed Schinoussa supplements from Quantum Nutrition in 2022.
Subsequently, she tested positive for Roxadustat. Halep claimed that the product label did not contain any information about Roxadustat, leading her to take legal action against the company for their negligence.
Despite facing two charges from the International Tennis Integrity Agency (ITIA), the Romanian player maintains her innocence. As a two-time Grand Slam champion, she has approached the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), the highest authority in the sport.
The trial will span three days and will be conducted privately.
This case has garnered significant attention from the media, as well as online and social media platforms. Interestingly, it has become the most high-profile doping case in the sport since [year]
