Olympic Pole Vault Champion Braz To Miss Paris Games After Failing Dope Test

By IANS News May 30, 2024 • 00:00 AM View: 366

Paris Olympic Games: Olympic pole vault champion Thiago Braz will miss the Paris Olympic Games after breaching anti-doping regulations, the Athletics Integrity Unit (AIU) has announced.

The 30-year-old Brazilian was provisionally suspended last July after he was found to have traces of the performance-enhancing drug ostarine glucuronide in his urine following a routine test, the AIU said on Tuesday.

In a statement, the AIU said Braz had violated world athletics doping rules related to "metabolites or markers", reports Xinhua.
