The World Anti-Doping Company (Wada) is contemplating an enchantment to the Courtroom of Arbitration for Sport (Cas) after American sprinter Erriyon Knighton prevented a ban for taking a banned substance.
Knighton, 20, examined constructive for trenbolone – a banned substance used for muscle progress – in March.
An impartial arbitrator dominated on 19 June that Knighton greater than doubtless digested the substance by consuming contaminated meat.
The choice cleared the 200m sprinter to compete in america’ Olympic trials, which begin in Friday in Oregon.
However Wada says it can await a breakdown of the choice earlier than deciding whether or not to launch an enchantment.
“As soon as Wada has the total reasoned determination, it can examine that, together with the case file, with its standard scepticism and diligence,” a Wada spokesperson BBC Sport.
They added it might be “extraordinarily uncommon” to check constructive for trenbolone by consuming contaminated meat.
Trenbolone is a identified livestock progress promoter that’s used legally in beef cattle produced in, and exported to, america.
Usada (United States Anti-Doping Company) chief govt, Travis Tygart mentioned “justice” had been served following Knighton’s clearance.
