Croatian tennis player Jana Fet has been provisionally suspended after her doping results came back positive for three banned substances, the Tennis Integrity Agency (ITIA) announced.

Fet, ranked 189th in the world, was tested in November while playing for Croatia in the Billie Jean King Cup playoffs.

Her A and B samples tested positive for banned substances.

"The sample was divided into A and B samples, and subsequent analysis showed that the A sample contained three prohibited substances, ostarine (S-22), the metabolite LGD-4033, and the metabolite GW501516. The B sample was analyzed on Wednesday, January 14 and confirmed the findings of the A sample," the ITIA said in a statement.

Fet has the right to appeal the imposition of the temporary suspension to an independent court president, but to date she has not done so, the statement said.

She achieved her career best ranking at the end of October 2017, when she was 97th on the WTA rankings.
