Nick Kyrgios accepts a one-month suspension for testing positive for cocaine

Nick Kyrgios accepted a one-month suspension from the International Tennis Integrity Association for testing positive for cocaine at a tournament in Spain in June, the organization announced Thursday. The ITIA in its announcement said Kyrgios told investigators that he socially used cocaine during a night out before he was due to play in Mallorca, and after consulting with an expert from the World Anti-Doping Association, accepted that it was outside of competition. The ITIA said Kyrgios’ suspension is over Thursday pending the completing of that program.
