Richard Gasquet is a professional tennis player who was suspended in May after testing positive for cocaine. But now he's been reinstated, thanks to one of the most thrilling Positive Drug Test Excuses of the 2009 season!

"...the Tribunal accepted Mr Gasquet's plea of No Significant Fault or Negligence, on the basis that he was able to demonstrate on the balance of probabilities how the cocaine entered his system (through inadvertent contamination in a nightclub the night before his scheduled match)"

He said he kissed some girl in a club and she had, like, cocaine all over her lips or something, and that excuse totally worked! This excuse will join "Stepped on a needle in the park" and "It seeped through my pores while I was holding money contaminated with coke, unbeknownst to me" in the Classic Cokehead Excuse Lexicon.
