The World Anti-Doping Agency (Wada) and US Anti-Doping (Usada) are at loggerheads again after fresh reports that more Chinese athletes – one of whom is swimming at the Paris Olympics – have been cleared using a contaminated meat defence.
In a separate incident to the doping inquiry involving 23 Chinese swimmers that emerged in April, the New York Times reported that Tang Muhan and He Junyi both tested positive after eating French fries, Coca-Cola and hamburgers at a Beijing restaurant in October 2022.
