In an op-ed commentary in the New York Times published today, United States Anti-Doping Agency CEO Travis Tygart called for the Russian sports regime to come clean about its wide range of past doping issues or be barred from competing at the 2016 Rio Olympics.
Tygart starts the piece strongly, claiming that Russia’s issues are “an assault on the fundamental values of the Olympic movement.”
“If WADA verifies such obstruction in the lead-up to Rio, then the entire Russian delegation should be barred not only from the 2016 Olympic Games but from international competition indefinitely.” – Travis Tygart
Tygart then lays out the various allegations and reports against Russia, starting off with the 2014 German TV expose stating that Russian athletes were part of an organized doping scheme based on allegations of former Russian antidoping official Vitaly Stepanov.
