How Do You Think the ATP/WTA Can Straighten Out This Whole “Substance Abuse” Ordeal?

Question by ?exi – RETIRED: How do you think the ATP/WTA can straighten out this whole “substance abuse” ordeal?
Clearly this past year we have seen tremendous ammounts of incidents from Gasquet’s Kiss of Death to Agassi’s revelation. And now players are being unjustly punished for “suspicious” behaviours? Its like arresting someone cus they have one shoe on instead of two.
Well i compare Gasquet’s case to something like second-hand smoking. Your not doing it but still getting it in your system

Okay, the thing is Gasquet deserved the suspension he got, he made out with scum..Agassi lied, ATP was gulliable. The thing that pisses me off is that Wickmayer is out for a YEAR because of some sheet she didn’t fill out! She didn’t even know she had too! So maybe they should TELL the players what they need to do, and hopefully Wickmayer’s appeal works..This crap could ruin her career!

Edit: Thanks Federer Fan! I hope this whole situation with Wickmayer can be resolved, I mean if she wasn’t at home, how could she fill it out? I hope she gets to come back, she has so much potential!

Now WADA-ITF is cleaning up their big mess by punishing little shrimps as sacrificial lambs on the table so that everyone can see they are just. WTA doesn’t believe Wickmayers deserves a harsh suspension. Not sure where ATP stands for Gasquet. I haven’t heard any comment made by ATP. Agassi’s OPEN time table is clearly disadvantageous to these 3 players who aren’t a hard core tennis criminals ? They are just misdemeaners, small fish just got caught in their fishnet and couldn’t escape from the net because they are powerless. The BIG ones cleverly jumped out of it, so to speak.

Come on WADA-ITF, wake up and be more sensitive about your verdict.

Edit : I’m reading OPEN right now to come up with my own conclusion, but with my school work it might take sometime to finish the book.
