Norway's men's team received a visit from the country's anti-doping agency this week, but while this is a usual occurrence in football, what made this instance remarkable was the players they asked to test.

Then they probably wonder why a big chunk of the public think anti-doping is nothing more than a PR piss take.

Whilst I don't think it necessarily precludes any PED use, in this particular case given the extremely low amount in his test, and the actual availability of this specific substance in over the counter topical medications in Italy, I don't think it's a genuine positive.

Failing a drug test twice is certainly not a positive for any sportsperson.

It's not, but it was in rapid succession (during the same tournament, with the same masseur, that would have been using the same product) and in such tiny amounts that it's unlikely he's actually being pinged for that being used as a PED.

Also at the level he's at, there's little to no chance he's still taking steroids so close to a major tournament.

I think in this case - and I believe Tennis is sketchy AF - his explanation is probably legitimate.

if they peeked behind the curtain in US prosport

Barry Bonds and Mark McGuire areNOT even the tip of the iceberg

Lebron would even outspend Lance Armstrong , Tom Brady less so

google Ted Hopkins* brown tablets/pills

also FigBooty blackcat:
Don Scott Madden Luke Ball Libbi Gorr

think it was Simon not Justin Madden , it was grand final breakfast 25 years after the OG Bob Ansett North Melbourne Grand final breakfast

tout , tous

Liberatore Darcy Garlick West Shane Charter

first Australian as per wikipedia done* for doping an nrl player late 60's , was mid 90's before VFL outlawed peds

*so very very very unlikely to be first player who took peds
