  • From what I understand, she was visited by anti doping for a urine sample early morning while she was doing a water weight cut just prior to a competition weigh in.

    Having competed in Taekwondo myself, after weight cutting for a week, I don’t think I would be able to supply even a thimble of urine on weigh in morning.
    She did provide a sample later that day, probably after her team told her she was an idiot.

    Of course, as an elite athlete, that’s what you sign up for.

    She looked really untidy and scrappy today, even if she gets through on reperchage, I don’t think she has the form to to get bronze.

  • It sounds like she was pretty vile towards the UKAD tester. Again, maybe a consequence of not having eaten or had a drink for 48 hours but you’ve got a responsibility as an elite athlete to prove yourself clean.

    Repeatedly missing tests (Lizzie Armitstead comes to mind), or refusing them, stinks.
