I thought there was no way she would take coke during the RG-Wimbledon period, but then apparently she doesn't even bother to get a room in a different hotel than where she's supposed to be to cheat on her husband so... It looks like she likes to live dangerously.

It looks like she likes to live dangerously. I was thinking the same. I know these are unrelated things, at least on the surface, but somehow this seems to speak to character. I have no problem thinking Martina is lying about the cocaine bust now. Of course, the WTA shouldn't be testing for it anyway.

You guys, this cokeslut stuff and wild extrapolations of her character are off-putting. There's a wtaworld thread right now describing how slutty she is for having 12 bfs in a decade as if that's some absurdly high number.

Hyperboles.
Nobody said she's a horrible human being.
At least 12 romances in 10 years does show she gets bored quickly and wants to move on with a new man (read: a new cock). I doubt it was an incompatibility of characters every time. Add the fact that she cheated on her husband not long after getting married, there is enough evidence to conclude "she likes men very much".

It's par for the course for male pro-athletes, or rich guys, or really any average gay guy. The cheating stuff is bad I agree, she should never have got married, but everything else is standard playing-the-field stuff.

It wouldn't be so bad if she didn't get married often and trot out her beaus in public.

I always assumed that she definitely had done coke during that period, hence the whole not-bothering-to-dispute-it thing.

Still, I side with Hingis on that. The ban she received (2 years) was way too long, and as I said before, cocaine should not be a banned substance.

There's a wtaworld thread right now describing how slutty she is for having 12 bfs in a decade as if that's some absurdly high number. I thought someone might argue that. That's fair, but I don't find it convincing. Yes, you can easily argue that Martina's love life and her cocaine bust are unrelated events. I'm sure some people would find that convincing. I just think the former speaks to character, which makes the latter more probable. Call it intuition/emotional reasoning over pure lawyer-ly logic. I don't normally do that, but hey.

No, it's logical and somewhat related. If you cheat on your husband, it shows you're willing to take a significant risk that could seriously impact your life, for a high that doesn't last very long. It does speak to character in that it shows her relation to risk, and what she's willing to risk for a cheap high. Knowing that piece of information, the coke story appears far more likely that it was.

Doing coke and playing the field aren't out of the ordinary and they don't make Hingis any more of a rampant cokeslut than eg most people I know. It's rare to find a female celebrity athlete with such a blithe attitude to it all though, she doesn't seem remotely concerned with being a "good girl". This is to her credit.

Yes. Her lack of public apology for most of it is much appreciated. The fake public apology is one of my least favorite things.

I can't help but think if she were a man the same people who are applauding her would be vilifying her. I feel sorry for that guy, you know. It sucks that he trusted her enough to marry her and that's what he got.

So now she's beating him up with Melanie and Mario? And tampering with his car engine?

I just saw that on TF! Run away, ex-hubby. Run far, far away. But he never should have run to the media with the story of Martina's bad habit of sleeping around. What kind of person does that? Why are they calling Mario Widmer the "new" life-partner of Molitor, though. They've been together for decades.

This all is basically the plot of that movie where Tracy Ullman, Joan Plowright and River Phoenix try to kill Kevin Kline.
I should see it again, it's fun.
