Marketa's four-year ban upheld

The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) will resume its review of the case of Wimbledon 2023 champion, Czech player Markéta Vondroušová, who was suspended for four years for refusing to undergo a doping test in late 2025. The International Tennis Integrity Agency imposed the suspension after her refusal of a surprise test, citing that Vondroušová justified her refusal due to anxiety and health and psychological issues, and claimed that the tester did not follow proper protocol. The hearing session is scheduled to take place in the coming months, and the penalty could be reduced or the final decision overturned depending on the outcome of the appeal. Vondroušová has not participated in tournaments since her suspension; her last appearance was in August 2025 at the US Open, where she reached the quarterfinals but was unable to play due to an injury. She had won Wimbledon 2023 unexpectedly, despite being ranked 42nd before the tournament, and had previously reached the final of Roland Garros in 2019 and won a silver medal at the Tokyo 2021 Olympics.
