To say Oceane Dodin, a French tennis player ranked outside of the top 400 in the world standings wasn't expecting her return to the sport after a lengthy absence to make global news is an understatement.

The 28-year-old took a step back from the game in December 2024 in a bid to seek treatment for an inner-ear condition that had been troubling her for the past 10 years of her playing career.

Dodin made her return to the court at the end of September at a small ITF tournament in Reims, away from the spotlight on her high-flying peers competing in the high-ranking events that make up the post-US Open Asian swing. By contrast, she earned her first win against a player ranked 414th in the world.

But days later, Dodin found herself at the centre of a media swirl after sharing in an interview in her native France that she had, during her time on the sidelines, become the first active player to have undergone breast enhancement surgery.

'Yes and no,' Dodin told Daily Mail Sport when asked if she had expected to garner attention in such an unorthodox manner. 'Yes, because in this sport, it's not like usual, nobody has done it before, so I knew people and journalists are gonna talk about it.

'But no, because, I mean, for me, it's nothing crazy. It's just boobs, it's nothing. So I was like, "maybe people are going talk about it because it's new, and because it's unusual" - but not that much.'

Do you still think its important to protect the 'sanctity' of Women's Sports by banning transgender women, Trumpkins?
