Maria Sharapova doping ban reduced to 15 months as French Open return likely
  • 8 years ago
Maria Sharapova's two-year doping ban has been reduced to 15 months following her appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
The 29-year-old tennis star can return to play in April, making her eligible to compete in the French Open next year.
The five-time Grand Slam winner, 29, was initially banned by the International Tennis Federation for two years after testing positive for meldonium at the 2016 Australian Open.
