- Captain of the Australian Cup Davis, Lleyton Hewitt, was suspended for two weeks by the International Tennis Integrity Agency.
- The suspension stems from an incident where Hewitt pushed a 60 -year -old anti -doping volunteer in Spain.
- Hewitt denied the accusation, saying that he had acted in self -defense, but it turned out that he is committed to conduct.
The International Tennis Integrity Agency suspended the Australian Cup captain Davis Lleyton Hewitt for two weeks for pushing a 60 -year -old anti -doping volunteer at the end of a match in Spain last November.
Hewitt, 44, denied the accusation – which was brought by ITIA following the examination of video evidence, declarations of witnesses and interviews – saying that he had acted in self -defense.
Hewitt had asked to appear in person before the independent court, so a hearing did not take place before July. After a decision in August, Hewitt’s suspension should start on September 24 and end on October 7.
During its suspension, ITIA says that Hewitt will be “unable to participate in all tennis activities, including coaching, mentorship, game, captain and other associated roles”.
“The anti -doping staff play a fundamental role behind the scenes to maintain the integrity of tennis, and they should be able to play their roles without fear of physical contact,” said Karen Moorhouse, CEO of ITIA, said in a press release. “In this case, this line was clearly crossed, and we had no choice but to act.”
Hewitt is authorized to appeal the suspension before it takes effect, but the ITIA says that no call has yet been filed.
