The doping never ends. Yet another athlete most likely being stripped of their Olympic medal, this time from Tokyo. How this sport is still on the programme amazes me.

Worded what I said wrong. I know he hasn't been stripped but he most likely will be, that's what I meant when saying what I did. Apologies for the misinformation.

 

Edit: The post has now been worded correctly.

Once the positive test is in it usually takes a few months, but the train will surely get to the station.

he tested positive in February-March, he won't be stripped of the Tokyo medal unless a retest on his Tokyo or previous samples turns out to be positive in the next years.

Cracking excuse here.  

 

Milwaukee catcher Pedro Severino was suspended for 80 games on Tuesday following a positive drug test for Clomiphene - a female fertility drug that has been banned by Major League Baseball as a performance enhancer.  
 

Since late 2020, my wife and I had been trying to start a family unsuccessfully,' Severino said in a statement issued by the players' association. 'When we returned to the Dominican Republic after the 2021 season, we sought medical assistance to determine why we had not succeeded. 

 

'One of the doctors I consulted with prescribed me with a medication to treat infertility issues. Unfortunately, I now know that the medication contained Clomiphene. I accept responsibility for this mistake and have decided not to challenge my suspension.'

French fencer Daniel Jérent who was provisionnary banned before Tokyo and who claimed his positive result was due to a blood transfusion he had at the hospital after a car crash was actually right.

Who knows how many excuses are actually true... and how many athletes are disqualified for minor substances that got into them by accident.

the right question is : how many positives have been turned negative in secret with money
