BREAKING: The AIU has provisionally suspended Norbert Kobielski (Poland) for Presence/Use of a Prohibited Substance (Pentedrone norephedrine metabolite)

 

As I wrote on athletics thread, he admit that he did drink too much energy drinks... :facepalm: And earlier he was banned by using, for medical reason, marijuana :wacko:

There have been some clues in the Greek media and based on that I am 99% sure it is Kyriaki Filtisakou, a race walker. And yesterday our Olympic committee announced there will be 100 athletes going to Paris (when before they were saying there would be 101).

Now it is official, she's out of Paris 2024 of course.

from Tunisian media :

Amine Guennichi - 130 kg GR Wrestler is banned for doping offence ..couldn't find the news in any other UWW or IOC sources.  

 

@MHSN

his name is not on ITA's list either 

https://ita.sport/sanction/united-world-wrestling-uww/

 

but sometimes they are a bit slow, if this is true, his name will appear in this list some time soon. (unless this is a local test thing)

If I got any official announcement I will post it here.

 

But having the competition on 5th of Aug .. would it be possible to invite someone (from Africa or Olympic qualification tournament) or they will live with only 15 wrestler!

Tunisia still can send someone else , the quota belongs to the NOC, not the wrestler.

 

but if they don't, there is nobody else in African qualifier to replace him. only 2 wrestlers finished the competition in that weight. (2 more guys were there but they got disqualified for not finishing the round robin competition) 

 

per rules, this should become a universality quota but I think it's impossible to go through that process in such a short time. therefore this goes to the next best ranked wrestler at the 2023 World Championships which is Lithuania.

 

but I also think it's possible if they do it with 15 wrestlers. (which means seed #1 will get a bye in the first round)

Amine Guennichi suspendu 4 ans pour dopage… juste avant les JO – Sport.fr

with my basic French it looks like he is suspended for 4 years. @Benolympique 

:TUN Media says the offence was done earlier and he was allowed to compete waiting the final decision!

Yes it's official, 

 

The wrestler has been suspended for 4 years due to a violation of anti-doping rules. The incident dates back 8 months when members of ANAD - the National Anti-Doping Agency - went to the elite center to test the athlete. The athlete was in his room and did not come out until 7 PM (the ANAD members had been there since the morning). Finally, the athlete took the test, which came back negative. Initially, the athlete was provisionally suspended but was eventually exonerated after presenting a medical prescription proving he was taking medication to help him sleep and had slept all day. Subsequently, ANAD reported the matter to WADA, which filed a complaint with the Court of Arbitration for Sport. Ultimately, they decided to suspend the athlete for 4 years.

From Romanian media: the 28 yo athlete Florentina Iusco (long jump/triple jump) has been suspended for 2 years.

 

it's an interesting story: Iusco was tested positive on 23.04.2023 (furosemid) but our domestic anti-doping agency issued just a warning, considering the athlete was not responsible for taking this drug! WADA appealed against this sentence, and TAS ruled a 2-year ban for Iusco.

If the lights light up exactly at the correct moment, he was definitely first, since his light went on first. Not sure if those lights are 100% accurate though?

    • Fewer people do do this sport compared to the 90s, less money is spent on it, etc. In the case of women, at some point this sport was almost abandoned because of the belief that it was impossible to beat Scandinavia ( the times of Norwegian domination with Bjoergen and Johaug at the forefront). Only in the last 2 years has Markus Cramer been hired, who is gradually rebuilding the men's and women's teams. Suffice it to say that the last medalist of the World Championships for Italy in the women's was Arianna Follis in 2011... I will also remind you that in 2022 Pellegrino and de Fabiani trained with the Russian team, because the rest of the Italian team was in such poor shape that they couldn`t train together 
    • Well that is a totally different question  I too have wondered what happened to Italian cross-country and how there is no one coming for so many years. But it shouldn't take away from the sports where progress has been made. 
    • Where to Watch guide.  Discovery plus in most of Europe       https://www.ucitrackchampionsleague.com/watch-the-races
    • Appetite grows with eating. Especially since it's not like we develop in every winter sport... For example, 20 years ago we were a powerhouse in cross-country skiing and now we have only 1 Pellegrino (34 age) and a few talented youngsters. And let's remember that our performance in Turin was objectively weak for us: only 11 medals in total. Now, when I hear that we will to win 2O+, some discipline must definitely add medals and also compensate for the losses in cross-country skiing, for example.
    • The problem is that this mixed team has never played together since then. There was talk of personal obstacles. I don't know how it`s now.
    • Well that explains why she is wearing more clothes with every passing day.   Nevertheless that team is still one of the best in the world and is a vast improvement on what Italy was doing 10-20 years ago. 
    • Any idea where a full schedule can be found yet? I remember last seasons the website was always godawful in terms of providing that basic kind of information..
    • Constantinis team have made huge improvements since 2022 even if they are not best yet. And Constantini never was world leading in mixed doubles before Beijing olympic either so it is not like she really have lost anything since 2022 either, except not being able to repeat that success.
    • She had health problems yesterday. Nevertheless, after the gold in mixed doubles with Mosaner in 2022, I counted a bit more on her development. I still think that the biggest chance for us in 2026 will be the mixed team, rather than our teams.
    • I don't know who Italy should field for the doubles? Sinner has the greatest individual strength but he probably doesn't train with anyone on the team. Last year Sinner played 2 doubles with Sonego in the Davis Cup (two wins) but this year Sonego isn`t in the squad. On the other hand the Bolelli-Vavassori doubles are well-coordinated, as is the Argentine one, but individually these players don't even mean as much as Sinner's 1 hand. For me the Sinner/Berettini option is possible but the question is: did they train together on last day?
