IGA SWIATEK admitted today she feared a more negative reaction to her doping ban and sees no reason for the case to drag on.

The Pole was handed a one-month suspension in November after a positive test for the angina medication trimetazidine, which the International Tennis Integrity Agency (ITIA) accepted was caused by contamination of a medicine Swiatek was taking to help combat jet lag.

It was the second high-profile doping case to hit the sport in a matter of months following men’s world number one Jannik Sinner’s two failed tests, for which he did not receive a ban.
