Simona Halep was asked if she still takes supplements after having problems due to a contaminated batch and staying away from tennis for a year and a half.
Journalists from Tennis Magazine came to Romania for an interview with Simona Halep, which is set to be published.
Among the questions asked was one related to supplements. The journalists asked her if she still takes supplements, and our athlete honestly replied yes.
"Is she still upset with a system she believes failed her? Yes. Were there moments when she thought about simply giving up? Yes. Is she angry with her former coach, Patrick Mouratoglou, who recommended and provided the supplements? No. Does she still take supplements? Yes, surprisingly. Does she want to return to competition? Yes. Does she see herself winning more major tournaments? Maybe not," wrote Tennis Magazine.
Simona Halep tested positive for Roxadustat after consuming a contaminated supplement.
Therefore, our athlete decided to sue the manufacturer Quantum Nutrition and seek compensation.
