Murray: Careful to Read Everything That Is Relevant to Him

INDIAN WELLS, Calif. — Scottish tennis star Andy Murray reacted to Maria Sharapova's failed drug test by noting that he's careful to read everything that is relevant to him.

Sharapova said this week that she had tested positive for meldonium because she didn't read the email from the World Anti-Doping Agency that said the drug was on the prohibited list this year. The Russian called it a huge mistake.

"Everyone's obviously different," Murray said Thursday at the BNP Paribas Open. "Some people put a lot of trust in the people and the team around them so it's hard to say what's the right thing for everyone, but I think it's almost part of our job to know everything that's going into our bodies and not just rely on what a doctor is saying or a physio is saying.
