Jessica Eudovic has been provisionally suspended for violating tennis\u2019 anti-doping protocal.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The 18-year-old American submitted a urine sample that contained the banned substance clostebol at a drug test conducted at the\u00a0ITF World Tennis Tour W15 event in Santa Tecla, El Salvador, on October 1st, the International Tennis Integrity Agency announced today.<\/a><\/p>\n

Here\u2019s the ITIA\u2019s statement detailing Eudovic\u2019s positive test and subsequent provisional suspension:<\/p>\n

The sample was split into A and B samples and the subsequent analysis found that both samples contained a metabolite of clostebol, which is prohibited under the TADP, in the category of Anabolic Androgenic Steroids (section S1.1 of the 2025 World Anti-Doping Agency Prohibited List).\u00a0<\/p>\n

Clostebol is a non-Specified substance, and Eudovic did not possess a valid TUE for the substance.
Findings for non-Specified Substances carry a mandatory provisional suspension \u2013 in Eudovic\u2019s case, this has been in effect from 21 November 2025.<\/p>\n

Eudovic, who reached a career-high ITF singles ranking of 1104 in October 2025,<\/a> filed an appeal of her provisional suspension on December 1st.<\/p>\n

However, that appeal was dismissed on December 16th \u00a0by independent chair Dr Tanja Haug, who declared that the basis of Eudovic\u2019s appeal was \u201cinsufficient to meet the threshold required to lift a Provisional Suspension.\u201d<\/p>\n

While provisionally suspended, Eudovic is prohibited from playing in, coaching at, or attending any tennis event authorized or sanctioned by the members of the ITIA (ATP, ITF, WTA, Tennis Australia, F\u00e9d\u00e9ration Fran\u00e7aise de Tennis, Wimbledon and USTA) or any national association.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"By Richard Pagliaro | Monday, December 22, 2025Photo credit: Battle of Boca Instagram Jessica Eudovic has been provisionally…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":365327,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[565],"tags":[64,63,85,747],"class_list":{"0":"post-365326","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tennis","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-sports","11":"tag-tennis"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/365326","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=365326"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/365326\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/365327"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=365326"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=365326"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=365326"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
