Maria Sharapova has paid the time she had to pay for doping offence: Arantxa Sanchez to India Today

Arantxa Sanchez Vicario has backed the Russian former world No. 1 and says Maria Sharapova has served the punishment for her anti-doping rule violation.

Sharapova will make her first appearance at the Stuttgart Open next week where she has been handed a wild card. That move has rubbed some big names in the women's tennis the wrong way. Many feel Sharapova should go through the qualifiers and shouldn't get an automatic entry into the main draw.

But Sanchez has backed the former Russian World No.1 and says Sharapova has served the punishment for her anti-doping rule violation.

"There will be a difference of opinion on this issue. But I think she has already paid the time she had to pay for the doping offence. She will be playing her first tournament at the Stuttgart Open after serving her doping ban. It will be interesting to see how she comes back, so that's what we need to look at," Sanchez, who is in the Capital to promote the Rendezvous Roland Garros wild-card tournament, told India Today.
