The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) has partially upheld an appeal from French tennis player Sherazad Reix against a disciplinary sanction imposed on 31 January 2023.
The CAS ruling means that Reix’s period of ineligibility has been reduced from four years to two, and their fine from $30,000 to $10,000, with three breaches of the Tennis Anti-Corruption Program (TACP) found.
Reix was found liable for six breaches of the TACP in 2023 by independent Anti-Corruption Hearing Officer Amani Khalifa. For full details, including the written decision, click here.
The player’s period of ineligibility runs from 31 January 2023 and will end on 30 January 2025.
During the period of ineligibility, Reix is prohibited from playing in, coaching at, or attending any tennis event authorised or sanctioned by the members of the ITIA (ATP, ITF, WTA, Tennis Australia, French Tennis Federation, Wimbledon and USTA) or any national association.
The ITIA is an independent body established by its tennis members to promote, encourage, enhance, and safeguard the integrity of professional tennis worldwide.
