London: Maria Sharapova said she fought for the truth so she can end her career on her terms. The former world number one was initially banned for two years after failing a doping test before having it reduced to 15 months on appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
"You want to end your career or a chapter in your life on your terms and in your voice, and to be in a moment where you felt like it could have ended on someone else&rsquo;s terms was difficult to accept. And that's why I fought for the truth. You don&rsquo;t realise how much you love something and how much something means to you until you lose it," Sharapova said.
