Hingis the next Marion Jones?


Former #1 ranked tennis star Martina Hingis tested positive for cocaine, and suspiciously retired after. Hingis' case is a little different than what has become our everyday athlete substance abuse case. Hingis isn't being accused of using a performance enhancing steroid. Instead, she tested positive for recreational cocaine. We will have to ask Whitney if it was the "good kind".

Nonetheless, Hingis vehemently denies ever using drugs, saying she'd be afraid to try them. On the court, Hingis was amazing. She was the youngest player ever to be ranked #1 and was the powerhouse of this generation. Now instead of cheering for her to win Wimbledon, I'm cheering for her hoping that the hair sample she submits miraculously turns up negative. We alll want to believe her. But liars like Marion Jones are making it pretty difficult to do. Good luck Martina.

Hingis never liked my girls..Venus and Serena..so that shows she doesn't have good taste. People think they can just lie and get away with it..she should go bald and dare the hair strand test...AGAIN!!
