Renee Stubbs is convinced that Simona Halep would not use prohibited substances on purpose

The 51-year-old Australian said that when the International Tennis Integrity Agency published an announcement that shook the world of the white sport. I hope this is all a mistake. Stubbs returned and sent a message in which he sided with the Romanian.

“Thinking more about this situation, I just can’t believe that Simona Halep would KNOWINGLY take a performance enhancing drug. I know I don’t know all the circumstances, but she is not the right person. Reading Darren Cahill’s comments further strengthens my conviction. I hope everything will become clear” – Renee Stubbs on Twitter.
