Only people unfamiliar with Halep believe she rose from nowhere. She was simply plagued with injuries and finally got healthy.

Don't forget Halep had significant surgery that she had done to improve her movement. It was after that, that her level also improved. So certainly not unexpected rise to the top. She was that dedicated.
If she was a user, why did it take the WTA so many years to pick up? It doesn't make sense that she intentionally took banned substances.

It certainly was always suspect the way she suddenly rose having been a middling pro before. I don't at all have issue with her chosing to have cosmetic surgery in her earlier career in the aid of improving her chance to play better. However I did always think that if she was prepared to go to such lengths, then what else was she prepared to do. It looks like this open and shut case shows what else she was prepared to do, appeal notwithstanding.

People like this need to be thrown out of the sport with massive fines and retrospective expunging of titles. Even if she has a 4 year ban now, there is an argument that its been 'worth it' on net with all the sucess cheating brought her.

Before surgery she was annoying but sexy, after surgery she was just annoying... But, jokes aside, she always looked like a normal talanted player in terms of her tennis and how she played.
