Doping concerns ahead of the Paris Olympics
Manage episode 419645801 series 6050
An investigation has found that 23 Chinese swimmers tested positive for a banned substance before the 2021 Olympics — but were still cleared to compete by the World Anti-Doping Agency. Several of those swimmers went on to win medals, and that’s not sitting well with some competitors heading into the 2024 Paris Olympics. Matt Galloway speaks with Travis Tygart, the CEO of the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency, and Ross Wenzel, the general counsel for WADA.
