Hi - new to this forum. Doping in sport is something that particularly interests me. I just wondered how you cycling fans feel about tennis.
Many of the very biggest names in cycling have been caught doping - but in tennis a top player has never been caught. Looking at the doping statistics the top guys are tested out of competition perhaps no more than once per year. In women's some are never tested - the Williams sisters had no out-of-competition tests in 2010 and 2011.
I watch the game I love and frankly no longer believe it. Top players missing chunks of the season "injured" and coming back better than ever. 4hour+ matches with guys looking as strong at the end as at the beginning.
I'm convinced doping is rife in top tennis and that the testing is a joke. What do you think?
