Sydney: Australian tennis player turned coach Marinko Matosevic was slapped with a four-year ban yesterday for breaching anti-doping rules between 2018 and 2020.
The former world number 39, who most recently helped coach current Australian players Chris O’Connell and Jordan Thompson, initially denied all charges.
But he admitted to blood doping in comments shortly before the hearing was scheduled to take place, the International Tennis Integrity Agency (ITIA) said.
An independent tribunal found he committed five anti-doping rule violations.
They included “use of a prohibited method through blood doping and facilitating another player to blood dope”.
