Simona Halep has vowed to return to tennis with "renewed vigour and an invigorated spirit" after a four-year doping ban was reduced to nine months. The 2-time Grandslam winner has not played competitively since the US Open in August 2022 - when she failed a doping test. Halep's suspension was backdated to the start of her provisional suspension in October 2022, meaning she is able to return to competition in the coming weeks. How will she fare on her road to redemption? We speak to Tennis Commentator Mousumi Dutt to find out more.
