Dayana Yastremska is sure that she will clear her name after being provisionally suspended for doping. The 20-year-old failed a drug test in November as she was found positive for mesterolone. The Ukrainian sensation broke the news when she was training in the Middle East, saying that she did nothing wrong. Dayana maintains that she is completely clean, and the test came positive because there were contamination issues. Therefore, she appealed, also hoping to play the first major of the season.
