Tennis player Nick Kyrgios has been given a one-month ban. This is because he tested positive for cocaine.

Kyrgios, who is 31 years old, can play again after his ban ends. He was first suspended on August 4th. This happened after a sample he gave in June tested positive.

The sample was taken during the Mallorca Open. It showed the presence of benzoylecgonine. This is a substance found in cocaine.

Kyrgios spoke to investigators from the International Tennis Integrity Agency. He accepted the ban.

The ban means he cannot compete in professional tennis matches for one month.

This action follows standard procedures for athletes who test positive for banned substances.

The International Tennis Integrity Agency is responsible for enforcing anti-doping rules in tennis.

Kyrgios's return to the sport is now scheduled after the ban period.
