Controversial star Dayana Yastremska has vowed to pay back Tennis Australia for her quarantine bills after the Court of Arbitration for Sport scrubbed the Ukrainian out of the Australian Open.<\/p>\n
Yastremska's latest appeal in her doping case was dismissed by the CAS today, meaning she is still ineligible to return to competition.<\/p>\n
The 20-year-old was originally suspended in January for failing an out-of-competition drug test.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
She tested positive for mesterolone metabolite, a prohibited substance that can be used to boost testosterone.<\/p>\n
But the world No 29 flew to Australia regardless and went into hard lockdown in Melbourne<\/a> as she tried to clear her name.<\/p>\n "I know my presence in Australia has raised some concerns," Yastremska said in a statement following her latest setback.<\/p>\n https:\/\/twitter.com\/D_Yastremska\/status\/1357016745798754306?s=20<\/a><\/p>\n "The urgent procedure with the ITF Independent Tribunal and the CAS could have lifted my provisional suspension, which would have enabled me to compete at the Australian Open.<\/p>\n "That's the reason I was allowed to travel there…<\/p>\n "I intend to return all the expenses engaged by Tennis Australia on my behalf…<\/p>\n "I remain determined to demonstrate my innocence and clear my name."<\/p>\n Yastremska now must await the final resolution of her case.<\/p>\n Yastremska has won three WTA singles titles.<\/p>\n She reached a career-high ranking of No 21 a year ago.<\/p>\n Her best showing at a Grand Slam tournament was reaching the fourth round at Wimbledon in her main draw debut there in 2019.<\/p>\n https:\/\/twitter.com\/BenRothenberg\/status\/1353092385224450048?s=20<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Controversial star Dayana Yastremska has vowed to pay back Tennis Australia for her quarantine bills after the Court of Arbitration for Sport scrubbed the Ukrainian […]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30433"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=30433"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30433\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":30435,"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30433\/revisions\/30435"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=30433"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=30433"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=30433"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}<\/p>\n
