Richard Gasquet faces cocaine-kiss hearing next week
Richard Gasquet faces cocaine-kiss hearing next week

Richard Gasquet's cocaine-kiss is not over yet.

The Frenchman will go before the highest court in sports next week for what he says was a cocaine-tainted kiss in a nightclub.

In March before playing at the Master Series event in Miami, Gasquet failed a drug test and was suspended. The World Anti-Doping Agency and International Tennis Federation have asked the Court of Arbitration for Sport in Switzerland to ban him for one to two years.
Richard's defend was that his positive test resulted from a kiss he gave a woman.

An independent tribunal called by the ITF ruled he was not to blame. He was cleared to play again after serving just 2 1/2 months. A verdict by the top sports court is expected before the end of the year.
