United Nations have elected star tennis player Maria Sharapova as UN Goodwill Ambassador and signed a 9-year contract. But soon she was found failed in the doping test putting a ban on her career and UN also suspended her contract. Now her ban is going to expire in the coming April.

UN also wants her to be back on the rank of UN goodwill ambassador."UNDP was glad to learn that Maria Sharapova can return to the sport she loves sooner than expected and we will lift the suspension of her role as our goodwill ambassador once the reduced ban expires in April 2017," said a UNDP spokesperson.
"We understand that Ms Sharapova will be focused on resuming her tennis career and we look forward to discussing her role and engagement with UNDP at an appropriate date."

She was suspended for 24 months from the sports but later this ban has been reduced to 15 months. Sharapova, 29, had admitted using meldonium for 10 years to help treat illnesses, a heart issue and a magnesium deficiency.

As a goodwill ambassador, Sharapova has been active in helping recovery efforts after the 1986 Chernobyl disaster.
The tennis sensation has made visits to Belarus and donated $100,000 to support youth projects in rural areas that suffer from the after-effects of the Chernobyl nuclear accident.
