Halep suspended for 4 years for using Roxadustat. That drug is used to treat anemia for red blood cell production so I assume used by a pro for healing and recovery.

That is an absolutely insane suspension.

Fuck that

Hope they get destroyed on appeal

I guess trying to send a message but I agree seems like a heavy handed suspension for that type of drug.

A buddy said to me it would be used for blood-oxygen levels to help endurance in long matches but still seems a bit over reaching.
