Former U.S. Open runner-up Greg Rusedski tested positive for a banned steroid and could face a two-year ban.
Rusedski, who was born in Canada and plays for Britain, issued a statement Thursday saying he tested positive for nandrolone -- and that he never took performance-enhancing drugs.
He said the ATP told him a urine sample he provided showed a low concentration of nandrolone.
\"I wish to make it clear that I do not and never have taken performance-enhancing drugs,\" he said. \"This is a very complex situation which, once understood, will clearly demonstrate my total innocence.\"
