Simona Halep in an interview with Tennis Majors described her frustration at her career being put on hold while her doping case continues to be pushed back.
She also said that she had asked the ITF to lift her sanction to be able to play amid her case being in limbo and that they may yet cancel her next hearing.
But the ITF themselves said that in a short statement that they have no involvement in managing the case and that it is up to the ITIA involved with the ATP and WTA.
"The ITF has had no involvement in the management of this case, as the Tennis Anti-Doping Programme is managed and enforced by the International Tennis Integrity Agency (ITIA) on behalf of the ATP, WTA, ITF and Grand Slams," they said.
