Associated Press has more details on a story that appeared in today's Los Angeles Times sports section by Lisa Dillman bout one of four players at an exhibition last month in Belgium (Justine Henin-Hardenne, Nathalie Dechy, Elena Dementieva and Svetlana Kuznetsova) testing positive for a banned substance.
"A Belgian sports minister" said that Svetlana Kuznetsova tested positive for ephedrine, according to the article.
Of course as everyone knows ephedrine is present in many cold and cough medecines and apparently the testing was done by a non-WTA-sanctioned body at a charity event, so it is unlikely that Kuznetsova will be punished.
