“I can not hide it any more” he revealed. came as a pure surprise to everyone including the tennis fraternity. He wrote in his autobiography that he lied 13 years ago that he did not take any drugs.

This is what he had to say in his autobiography, a shocking revelation along with the wig stuff

“This is something I cannot carry any more, when I stopped my career…when I lied about this 13 years ago, I got a second chance,”

“I tried to make the most of my life with that second chance. Every day has been an atonement…. This school is a result of that atonement, this book is an atonement.”

The confession has rocked the sport and drawn condemnation from players such as Martina Navratilova, Boris Becker and Roger Federer. Many in the sport seem less amazed that he took drugs than bemused that he should now decide to “out” himself. And they hadn’t even heard about his other jaw-drop revelation – that he used to wear a wig.
