莎拉波娃召开新闻发布会,宣布自己没有通过药检将被禁赛,并称是由于世界反兴奋剂组织的禁药名单发生的变化才导致没有通过。莎拉波娃说她的药检中米屈肼呈阳性,她从2006年就开始服用含有该成分的药物,但在今年才被列入禁药名单。
Russian tennis player Maria Sharapova speaks at a press conference in downtown Los Angeles, California, March 7, 2016. The former world number one announced she failed a doping test at the Australian Open, saying a change in the World-Anti-Doping Agency banned list led to the violation. Sharapova said she tested positive for Meldonium, a substance she had been taking since 2006 but one that was added to the banned list this year.
