“This ruling sends a powerful message that no one is above the rules or bigger than the game. Commissioner Selig, Rob Manfred and their team should be commended for having the resolve and commitment to clean athletes to see tough cases like this through, so that justice prevails, and so that sophisticated and well-resourced athletes, who might be able to avoid detection through routine testing, do not get away with defrauding their competitors, teams or fans.”
USADA is responsible for the testing and results management process for athletes in the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Movement, and is equally dedicated to preserving the integrity of sport through research initiatives and educational programs.
