  • Drug-banned Kendrick ready to mount legal challenge

    8/2/11 1:33 AM | Johan Lindahl
    Drug-banned Kendrick ready to mount legal challenge Outraged American Robert Kendrick is already at work on his legal challenge to a one-year ban he was slammed with last week after testing positive for a banned substance contained in a diet tablet he took at the French Open as an anti jet-lag aid.

    The No. 105 is consulting with lawyers who hope to prove that their client deserves only a three-month ban from the ATP, Kendrick's sanction was tougher than one handed to Wayne Odesnik, caught in January, 2010, carrying human growth hormone across an international border after arriving on a flight to Australia.

    Kendrick took the weight loss product Zija XM3 in Paris to help recover after a transatlantic flight. But it did him little good as he lost in the first round. The journeyman played only one more match on grass in June before being notified he was being investigated.

    The ITF noted that Kendrick failed to inform drug testers that he had taken any products during the week prior to his test at Roland Garros.
