Former world No. 1 star Martina Hingis was suspended for two years by the International Tennis Federation because of a positive test for cocaine at Wimbledon last year.

Hingis announced her retirement from the sport last November 1, the same day she revealed the positive test and denied the accusations.

The ITF, however, said an independent anti-doping tribunal found that a sample provided by Hingis on June 29, 2007 tested positive for cocaine. The tribunal rejected the suggestion made on behalf of Hingis that there were doubts about the identity or integrity of the sample.

Meh. She retired already. Her best career years were over with long ago. Is this just out to embarrass her?

I don't see why a tennis player can't snore her nose off. It's not like it'll positively affect her athletic abilities...

Well this is certainly a blow to womens tennis.

Kind of hard for me to believe at first, but after thinking about it, I'm not surprised.
