Marketa Vondrousova has been the main protagonist of the day after the sanction imposed by the ITIA of 4 years without playing tennis following a missed doping control at the end of 2025. Many WTA players have labeled this decision as unfair and have shown their support through social media with a wave of messages.

According to Vondrousova, she has never doped, and she even acknowledges that she took the control three days later and tested negative. However, she changed her version of events twice, initially claiming that the person who came to conduct the control was late, and then stating she didn't open the door because it was late, she was afraid, and had mental health issues. This has led to a harsh sanction, and tennis players such as Marta Kostyuk, Sorana Cirstea, Paula Badosa, Eva Lys, and Ons Jabeur have sent her encouragement.

Eva Lys' powerful message following Vondrousova's sanction

Vondrousova is a beloved and respected tennis player within the circuit, which is why more and more players are commenting on her latest post as a sign of disagreement. Later, other names like Coco Gauff or Iva Jovic joined the comments section on her latest Instagram post, and it seems that more will follow suit. In fact, Eva Lys even posted a firm message on her 'X' account. "This is complete madness. Much love to Marketa…”, wrote the German player.

Nevertheless, the sanction appears to be firm, leading the former Wimbledon champion to issue a strong statement emphasizing how unfair she finds this decision. Her career will come to a sudden halt, and it remains to be seen what lies ahead for her after confirming those mental health issues that had plunged her into a bottomless pit in recent months.
