Except there's no evidence Meldonium is a performance enhancing drug.

It helps endurance and speed up recovery. (the last part is the most important IMO, if you can recover faster than your next match, then you will be in better shape to win.

The articles I read said that hasn't been proven (which raises the question of whether it really does anything at all.)

I think there's less evidence for that than you imagine but, even so, if Sharapova does have an ischemic condition, and that is surely easily proven though nobody seems to want to take that rather obvious step, it is in her case merely restoring her to equality with her competitors. This is why the issue gets so untidy. There are athletes, many more than you might imagine, who are disadvantaged by the banning of substances which are a necessary part of their health regime. I'm not for one second suggesting a carte blanche acceptance of drugs in sport but I do fear that the current black and white policies simply fail to address the complexity of the issue.

Unfortunately that's true of many banned substances. The performance enhancement is inferred from the known physiological effects rather than proven. As trials with placebos have shown that performance can be significantly improved with 'drugs' that have no physiological effect too it's clear that the whole issue is considerably more complex than regulators can allow for.

Only if it's written by just one reporter, if several people work together, then it's a cosine.

There you go - off on another tangent. If you're angling for some up-votes then you're acutely mistaken.

No, give him some pi and he'll take it as a sine to go round and round forever.

Yes, he's likely to take this to the nth degree.
