According to a lawyer who has handled athletes failed drug test cases before said Maria Sharapova punishment could be reduced for openly admitting that she failed drug test at the 2016 Australian Open.

The tennis superstar who made the confession during a news conference on Monday in Los Angeles, said she didn’t read an email that revealed the 2016 banned drug list. Porsche, Nike and Tag Heuer have suspended their relationships with Maria ever since she made the confession.
