CAS Imposes Four-Year Ban on British Tennis Player Tara Moore

Adjudicators ruled that Moore could not prove that contaminated meat caused the banned substances to appear in her test.

Tara Moore war vor drei Jahren die Nummer 77 der Weltrangliste. Aktuell steht sie nur noch auf Platz 187.
Moore nun doch gesperrt
Tara Moore in Aktion

Overview

  • The four-year suspension begins July 15, 2025, with Moore’s provisional suspension time fully credited against the ban.
  • The ruling reverses a December 2023 tribunal decision that had cleared Moore based on her claim of unintentional ingestion.
  • Moore’s sample from the April 2022 Bogotá WTA event tested positive for Boldenone and Nandrolone.
  • The Tennis Integrity Agency appealed in January 2024, presenting a scientific report that deemed Moore’s contamination defense insufficient.
  • The outcome underscores the strict liability standard under the World Anti-Doping Code and CAS’s authority in doping disputes.
