Australian Olympic Team team chef de mission Anna Meares says she has faith in WADA to stamp out doping in sport after an independent investigation clears the body of any wrongdoing in the Chinese swimming controversy.
Australian Olympic team chef de mission Anna Meares has backed the World Anti- Doping Agency after an independent investigation cleared it over the Chinese swimming controversy.
The swimmers were allowed to compete at the Games held in 2021 after WADA accepted Chinese findings that the athletes tested positive for trimetazidine , a medication that increases blood flow to the heart, because of contamination in a team hotel kitchen. "I, in my time, never wanted to speak when a cyclist went positive because I'm like, 'That's not part of me. That's not part of what I have done in my career.'
