Reporters leading publications did not believe Maria Sharapova, who explained how the prohibited substance appeared in her body. Explanation of 28-year-old Russians it seemed unconvincing.
The events of last Sunday night is still not out of the head.
Russia’s Maria Sharapova, stylishly dressed in a black dress, trembling the voice said, that in a sample taken at the Australian Open was detected drug meldonium, which was officially included in the list of banned since January 2016. Sharapova said that it has applied for over 10 years due to heart problems. The fact that now he is a dope, did not know. Letter to update the list of banned drugs received, but not read. Responsibility for the incident takes on.

The story of the unread emails do not believe, it seems, no one. Not German, not American, nor Italian media. So in La Gazzetta dello Sport on March 9 on one of the front pages of an article disappointed in the “stylish, glamorous blonde Russian” journalist:
‘positive doping test Maria Sharapova – this is a betrayal of the girl you love and which you believe. Since that day, as the 17-year-old Russian woman with a stately bearing and incredibly beautiful eyes flashed at Wimbledon for the first time, the whole tennis world was in love with her, and she with him. Recognition of doping, as a recognition of the fact that you love another. As before anything will be gone. But even more humiliating story of unread emails. When you try to hide the deception, justification overlook the most that neither is stupid. With your a staff of doctors and assistants, Maria, and read the letter … »
And then the journalist Gianni Valenti, like any jealous and proud Italian man, urges WADA does not do any favors Sharapova. Allegedly, the Russian sports has long been mired in doping. It makes no sense to be maintained tennis tears, losing his mind because of her beauty, or at least from the fact that she finished product, whose cost is estimated at millions. We must make it clear to her, and the whole of Russia, that the joke was over. A doping – no joke. Two years ineligibility – at least. A better – all four

German journalists even more categorical. They decided not to spill emotion, but meticulous by nature, applied to the facts. On Wednesday, several media contacted the Cologne Sport University scientists and professors of the famous Cologne doping lab, decided to clarify whether all so easy in a meldonium? One of the first and the main issues, which is logical, was that why just so many had used the athletes and then was caught on the drug, which allegedly does not give any advantage over its competitors?
And, as it turned out, it is not so simple. So it turns out that in the last days is German journalists tear the mask from the Russian sports and expose our athletes and coaches of dishonesty. Judge for yourself.
Professor of Biochemistry Department of the University of Cologne sports Mario Tevez said that meldonium have anabolic effects. It is proved, however, it was so far only in animals, and then, in the 1970s of the last century. growth factor and has been marked increase in potency. Scientific evidence that the same effect meldonium produces and people, yet. But largely based on these data, the WADA has made it to the list of prohibited drugs.
got what he wanted, the German journalists did not restrain his sarcasm. “They are all sick” – the so-called Christian Spiller article in one of the most influential German newspaper Die Ziet
«Maria Sharapova admitted doping.. She says she used it, because I was sick. Yes, like all pros in the sport. Otherwise, I do not know how to explain all this rubbish. Imagine a young girl who earns millions, which works a team of professionals, since 2006 takes the drug, which helps the heart, but that is not even sold in the United States! Who prescribed it to her? Who advised? And the most interesting, who brought it to her, given that it is sold only in Russia and the Baltic States? “- Asks the author of Die Zeit
Thoughts German journalist understood.. Strangely, it seems that many professional athletes sooner or later recognized that in some sick, and we believe them, because immunity decreases during intense workouts, and the body becomes vulnerable to any infection. But few people complaining about the common cold. Sharapova have heart problems, so the need meldonium, cyclists prevalent asthma, in the course are special sprays. Top biathletes recently often suffer from mononucleosis. Quite rare, by the way, a disease in which the blood is changing.

The strange this whole situation and it seems the American newspaper The New York Times. They appealed to the cardiologist Steven Nissen, head large clinic to clarify whether meldonium really helps the heart and how all true what he says Sharapova.
«I can not imagine that a young girl with symptoms , which says Sharapova could prescribe meldonium. He could not help it – says Nissen. – But even if it were so. Maybe something I do not know about meldonium, but the course of any similar product – from four to six weeks. 10 years? This is madness. And sheer folly ».
At the end of the article, as well, and all other materials of foreign media, who had a chance to read it, said almost the same thing. Sharapova warned. She could not know. And the list goes on: punish, do not forgive, to teach a lesson. And the best: at last, to bring order to the Russian sports. Too many vestochek lately.
