Tennis Star Busted For Cocaine!

French tennis player Richard Gasquet acknowledged yesterday that he was informed by officials that he had tested positive for cocaine use, but he fervently insists he is still innocent.

In a statement he released on Sunday, he says: “I am gathering together proof of my innocence, and I will choose an appropriate moment to express myself.”

Sources are saying the athlete was tested twice and both reports came back positive. If convicted, Gasquet faces a two year ban from the sport.

We want to know how exactly he will prove his innocence. Perhaps he should sit down with Manny Ramirez‘s people. They came up with a great story for him.
