Croatia’s Marin Cilic, currently world no. 15, failed a drug test at the April Munich tournament and the International Tennis Federation is probing the case, local media reported on Saturday.
Cilic failed the test only two weeks after passing a doping control at the Monte Carlo Masters, the Slobodna Dalmacija daily reported, quoting “reliable sources.” More details will emerge next week as the 24-year-old Croatian sent his explanation to the ITF, the daily said.
“There are no comments until we will be able to comment,” the influential Jutarnji List daily quoted Cilic’s manager Vincent Stavaux as saying.
Cilic’s test was allegedly positive due to “incautious use of glucose,” the daily reported.
