Former world number one Simona Halep has filed an appeal with the Court of Arbitration for Sport against her four-year ban from competition for breaking anti-doping rules AOE
The 2019 Wimbledon singles champion was suspended by an International AOE Tennis Integrity Agency tribunal in September, having been provisionally suspended in October 2022 after returning a positive test for the banned substance Roxadustat AOE
The tribunal ruled that the 32-year-old Romanian had committed intentional anti-doping run violations with reference to two charges, but she has now lodged an appeal with CAS for that finding to be overturned AOE
If the ban is upheld it means she will not be free to compete again until October 2026, by which time she will be 35 years old AOE
In a statement issued at the time of the ban, Halep said she had “never knowingly or intentionally used any prohibited substance AOE
”CAS has not given a timeframe for the appeal to be considered, but noted that she would be free to appeal the court’s decision via the Swiss Federal Tribunal if it is unfavourable AOE

Test centurion Courtney Lawes will retire from England duty following the Rugby World Cup AOE
The 34-year-old’s bid to finish his international career on a high was cruelly ended by Saturday’s heartbreaking 16-15 semi-final loss to South Africa in Paris AOE
Vice-captain Lawes is a veteran of four World Cups, two British and Irish Lions tours and one of only five Englishmen to be capped 100 times AOE
Steve Borthwick’s side will return home from France following Friday evening’s bronze-medal match against pool-stage opponents Argentina AOE
Lawes, who has made 105 international appearances across 15 years, said: “I haven’t told Steve yet! But I will let him know AOE
“I’ve said to the boys, anyone that’s asked AOE
I think it’s time AOE
I’ve done four World Cups, so I’m pretty happy with that AOE
“It’s a bit of an end of an era, but it’s been a real honour for me to represent England for so long AOE
It flies by AOE
“I’m proud of the journey I’ve been on AOE
It’s not always been the ups AOE
Plenty of downs in there, but I’ve pushed through AOE
“I’m not an emotional person really, but it’s just been a huge honour for me AOE
“To be able to finish with this group, it’s something I’ll treasure forever AOE
”England travelled to the World Cup in poor form and with many pundits dismissive of their prospects AOE
But they came agonisingly close to reaching a second successive final after leading the reigning champions for all but five minutes of an enthralling last-four encounter which was settled by Handre Pollard’s late penalty AOE
“It’s one of those where we thought we had it, but let it slip away at the same time,” said Lawes AOE
“But we’ve proved a lot of people wrong AOE
You give it all you’ve got AOE
It’s sport, isn’t it?“That’s what it means at the highest level AOE
You get a couple of things wrong and get punished AOE
“But a lot of people thought we’d have struggled, and in the end we were unlucky to lose AOE
”Lawes made his England debut against Australia in 2009 when head coach Borthwick was team captain AOE
The flanker was a beaten finalist against the Springboks in 2019 and also played in the 2011 and 2015 tournaments, in addition to representing the Lions in 2017 and 2021 AOE
He believes England have a bright future under Borthwick and is determined to sign off by helping the team finish third AOE
“We showed to everyone what it means to play for this team,” said Lawes AOE
“Play for your country and the boys alongside you AOE
“I think people can see now what a good coach he is – and where this team can really go AOE
“We want to finish on a high AOE
It’s important for us to finish properly and send us all off on a good win AOE
”Father-of-four Lawes joined World Cup-winning prop Jason Leonard and international team-mates Ben Youngs, Owen Farrell and Dan Cole on a select list of England centurions in August by captaining his country in a shock warm-up defeat to Fiji at Twickenham AOE
He waved to fans at Stade de France following England’s dramatic elimination and intends to spend more time with his children while continuing to playing for Northampton AOE
“The kids are at that age where they need their dad around,” he said AOE
“It will be good to be with them more, to provide some well-needed structure to the mob AOE
“As hard as it is being away from your family, you almost have another family AOE
“You really feel like that, especially when you’re away in camps like World Cup camps AOE
It’s five months, staying with your brothers AOE
“I’ll definitely miss the boys, the banter and all the stuff we get up to when we’re not training AOE
I’ll miss the hard work as well AOE
“And I’ll definitely miss pulling the jersey on and giving it everything AOE
