☆ Australia's Bol out of 800m after doping reprieve
  + stars: | 2023-08-22 | by ( Mitch Phillips | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +1 min
BUDAPEST, Aug 22 (Reuters) - Australian Peter Bol endured an anti-climatic appearance at the World Athletics Championships on Tuesday as, having had a doping suspension lifted only weeks before the event, he looked well off the pace in the 800m heats and failed to progress. Bol, fourth at the Tokyo Olympics and the Commonwealth Games silver medallist last year, was provisionally suspended in January after testing positive for synthetic erythropoietin (EPO). However, in an unusual development, an "atypical finding" was discovered in his B sample leading to the ban being lifted in February. However, the case dragged on until the start of August when he was finally cleared by Sport Integrity Australia.

☆ Australia's Bol cleared of doping after false positive test

MELBOURNE, Aug 1 (Reuters) - Australia's anti-doping authority has dropped its investigation into athlete Peter Bol in the lead-up to the world championships after finding his positive test for synthetic erythropoietin (EPO) was wrong. The provisional suspension was lifted a month later after the 'B' sample of his test did not match its 'A' sample. Sport Integrity Australia (SIA) continued its investigation, though, saying the 'B' sample was an "atypical finding" and not negative. "As a result, Sport Integrity Australia has taken the decision not to progress an anti-doping rule violation for this sample. "Sport Integrity Australia will now await outcomes of the WADA review of the EPO review process," it said.

MELBOURNE, Feb 14 (Reuters) - Australian athlete Peter Bol, who finished fourth in the 800 metres at the Tokyo Olympics in 2021, has had his provisional doping suspension lifted after the 'B' sample of his test did not match his 'A' sample, Sport Integrity Australia (SIA) said. The middle distance runner had been suspended since Jan. 10 after testing positive for synthetic erythropoietin (EPO) in an out-of-competition urine test last October. read moreBol's 'A' sample had returned an "Adverse Analytical Finding" but his 'B' sample produced an "Atypical Finding" (ATF) for recombinant EPO, anti-doping watchdog SIA said on Tuesday. "Sport Integrity Australia will, as part of its investigation, proceed to consider whether any anti-doping rule violation/s have been committed," the anti-doping watchdog said. "I have never in my life purchased, possessed, administered, or used synthetic EPO or any other prohibited substance, and never will."

REUTERS/Christinne MuschiSYDNEY, Sept 20 (Reuters) - The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) are still monitoring testing operations in Russia ahead of the decision on whether to reinstate the country, despite complications caused by the Ukraine war, president Witold Banka said on Tuesday. The existing two-year ban from international sport imposed by WADA on Russia for widespread, state-sponsored infringements of doping regulations expires at the end of the year. "We are monitoring this issue very closely and last month I expressed my will that they have to accelerate the process. More and more it is becoming a key pillar of what we do as the World Anti-Doping Agency."
