Sunday’s decision is subject to appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport by Yastremska, World Anti-Doping Agency and the National Anti-Doping Centre of Ukraine.“I firmly state that I have never used any performance enhancing drugs or prohibited substances,” she wrote. Tennis Australia also reportedly paid for her flight and hotel stay, prompting several figures to call for the governing body to be reimbursed.

Former head of the Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority , Richard Ings, wrote: “Yastremska should never have been allowed to travel. She could have had an expedited hearing on her provisional suspension. Completed before she boarded the plane. The ITF /Tennis Anti-Doping Program is who should compensate Tennis Australia. They allowed her to travel.”
