Russian Tennis star Maria Sharapova to return to court from doping ban in April in Stuttgart

London, Jan 10 (IBNS): Russian Tennis star Maria Sharapova is all set to return to the professional Tennis world by participating in the Porsche Grand Prix in Stuttgart in April.

She will make the comeback ending her 15-month doping suspension.

The tournament will star from Apr 26.

The Russian star has received a wild card for the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix.

Her two-year ban was reduced in October following an appeal.

She was handed the ban after testing positive for meldonium.

“I could not be happier to have my first match back on tour at one of my favourite tournaments,” Maria Sharapova was quoted as saying by the tournament website.

She had won the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix in 2012, 2013 and 2014.
