Overview

• Oliveira tested positive in November 2024 at an ATP Challenger event in Manzanillo, Mexico, with both A and B samples confirming methamphetamine.
• An independent tribunal ruled he failed to provide clear, cogent, persuasive or concrete evidence for unintentional contamination via kissing or environmental exposure.
• The sanction includes forfeiture of results, prize money and ranking points from Manzanillo and from subsequent tournaments before his provisional suspension.
• Provisionally suspended in January 2025, he receives credit for time served and is barred from competing, coaching or attending sanctioned events during ineligibility.
• Methamphetamine is a non-specified stimulant under WADA rules, and the case draws comparisons to rare intimate-contact defenses in past rulings involving Richard Gasquet and Ysaora Thibus.
