RE: Tennis’ biological passport program up and running

A shame it's around 20 years too late but better late than never I guess. They now need to start blood testing A LOT more than they used to. 5 blood tests for Troicki in 8 years is a pitiful stat they should be ashamed of. Just as bad for top players also. Sure wish they'd do some extensive retroactive testing on the blood bags collected by Fuentes!

good..lets hope its effective...

not happy about cilic and his 'silent ban' which is a reality lets face it, I didn't believe in the 'silent ban' stuff about rafa last year and serena before that..BUT NOW ????,

the the ATP have cheated those who believe in the truth..THE FANS.

ATP COVERED UP CILIC, even letting us all believe he pulled out injured at wimby..if they are prepared not only to have feeble drug test systems (before now)..why should we believe the ATP and the ITF Will not hide any more positive drug tests like cilic..:mad::huh:..

the ATP/ITF have let us all down this week..:mad:

I posted the WADA 2012 test results above seeing as the clowns at the ITF refused to make them available to the public. Clearly illustrates how poor the frequency of testing is.

Good that ITF has introduced the biological passport. Hopefully it wasn't introduced only to make them look like fighting against doping but that they really are fighting against doping.
