Heavier balls, slower surfaces, racket string technology that tends to elongate rallies \u2014 these are factors which add emphasis to physical endurance, along with the all the fine motor skills and technique required to succeed. Examples of this shift are not hard to find.<\/p>\n<p>Take, for example, the men\u2019s US Open final, which saw a 104-minute second set between Novak Djokovic and Daniil Medvedev, testing both men to their limits. Or you could look at the website of the WTA Tour, which gleefully extols its \u2018Marathon Marvels\u2019 in detailing the 60 matches passing the three-hour mark which have taken place this season.<\/p>\n<p>A couple of decades ago, such encounters barely existed between the women. So it is encouraging that the ITIA appear to be a more robust organisation than their predecessors, as they try to protect those who are doing the right thing.<\/p>\n<p>Halep has always maintained she belongs to that group, and continues to protest her innocence. She will be appealing to the Court of Arbitration for Sport, which has a history of showing leniency to tennis players. The Romanian, 31, would not have been high on my own list of potential doping suspects, having previously struck as someone of integrity.<\/p>\n<p>It is fair to say many in the game were shocked to discover she had tested positive for the outlawed roxadustat at last year\u2019s US Open. Yet the ruling does not make comfortable reading for her or those who work with her.<\/p>\n<p>Among the nuggets that stand out in the report is that she failed to mention her fateful taking of the Keto MCT supplement, either on her doping control form of August 29 last year, or at a subsequent hearing in October.<\/p>\n<p>One thing for certain is that Halep changed a lot in her life on and off the court last summer. In the early spring of 2022 she started working with French coach Patrick Mouratoglou, who has been vociferous in knocking down the verdict.<\/p>\n<p>At the end of May she announced she had split from Virginia Ruzici, her fellow Romanian former French Open champion. Ruzici, a highly respected figure within the sport, had been Halep\u2019s manager-mentor since her late teenage years.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/20\/06\/75626859-12538775-image-a-6_1695187305713.jpg\" height=\"422\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Halep had a tumultuous period in her life in 2022, which included splitting from her long-term manager-mentor Virginia Ruzici (left)<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/20\/06\/75626883-12538775-image-a-7_1695187435377.jpg\" height=\"485\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Halep is the highest-profile player to test positive for a banned substance since Maria Sharapova (above) in 2016<\/p>\n<p>It is notable that a few days before they parted Halep reported experiencing a panic attack on court during her second-round exit at Roland Garros.<\/p>\n<p>In September 2021 she married Toni Iuruc, a high-profile businessman from her country reported to be a billionaire. However, before their first anniversary it was announced they were getting divorced.<\/p>\n<p>Amid all this, Halep reached the Wimbledon semi-finals of 2022.<\/p>\n<p>So it was a tumultuous period in her life, which ended up with her becoming tennis\u2019s highest-profile player to test positive for a banned substance since Maria Sharapova in 2016.<\/p>\n<p>The other charge against Halep related to abnormalities found in her biological blood passport. It might well be this latter system which will act more as a deterrent to other players seeking to gain an unfair advantage.<\/p>\n<p>In a sport which has morphed into one which increasingly rewards staying power, properly resourced policing has never been so important.<\/p>\n<h2>Don&#8217;t get so hung up over Novak<\/h2>\n<p>Debate continues over Novak Djokovic\u2019s phone-slamming celebration after his US Open semi-final win over Ben Shelton. Ben\u2019s father, ex-pro Bryan, was not happy, telling GQ: \u2018He wanted to mock Ben at the end. It wasn\u2019t just to copy Ben. That\u2019s too bad, for that to come from such a great champion.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>One should never blame a parent for feeling protective towards their offspring. Yet, in the moment of victory and having seen off an opponent supported by a partisan New York crowd, was what Djokovic did really so bad?<\/p>\n<p>This was the US Open semi-final, not a social mixed doubles down at the country club, and the reaction of some is rather symptomatic of the excess faux-politeness that prevails in what is a gladiatorial sport.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Tennis is an entertainment business, in which being talked about is better than not being talked about. Djokovic\u2019s momentary gesture was hardly a hanging offence.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/20\/06\/75477131-12538775-Novak_Djokovic_copies_Shelton_s_phone_slamming_celebration_after-a-1_1695186885113.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Novak Djokovic copied Ben Shelton&#8217;s phone-slamming celebration after beating him in the US Open semi-finals<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/20\/06\/75477215-12538775-Shelton_starred_at_the_University_of_Florida_with_dad_coach_Brya-a-2_1695186966805.jpg\" height=\"447\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Shelton&#8217;s dad Bryan (right) was not happy with Djokovic&#8217;s gesture, but it was hardly a hanging offence<\/p>\n<h2>Manchester comes up trumps<\/h2>\n<p>Whatever issues there are with the Davis Cup\u2019s structure and position in the calendar, they were not too evident on the days Great Britain played.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Sunday\u2019s thrilling win over France was vindication of the LTA\u2019s decision to take the group stage to Manchester.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>When you get 9,000 spectators turning out on a Wednesday afternoon in September, at a venue with no prior habit of watching tennis, you know there is something worth preserving.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/20\/06\/75626749-12538775-image-a-3_1695187024281.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Thousands of fans turned out to watch Great Britain&#8217;s thrilling Davis Cup win against France in Manchester<\/p>\n<h2>Postcard from a life on tour<\/h2>\n<p>Travelling from New York to Manchester was not the culture shock it might have been 20 years ago.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The amount of apartment blocks that have gone up in the northern capital give parts of it a mini-Manhattan feel, while the roll call of city-centre designer shops would not be out of place on Fifth Avenue.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Stately civic buildings stand adjacent to brazen modern creations;
