Jamaica excluded sprinter Julien Dunkley from the Beijing Olympics list, despite earlier announcements he made the cut. This lead to speculation that Dunkley was the announced positive dope test. To AFP: (and here too)
Sprinter Julien Dunkley was dropped Tuesday from the list of Jamaican athletes competing at the Beijing Olympics but Jamaican Olympic officials would not confirm he tested positive for doping.
Dunkley's name has been removed from a group of 53 Jamaican athletes that had been posted on the Jamaica Olympic Association (JOA) website, but JOA head Mike Fennell said "the website has been under modification from day to day."
"You can draw your own conclusions but I am not going to say anything further at this point," Fennell said.
Fennell had earlier said the athlete who tested positive was not considered a "top athlete" and that he would be dropped from the team and his absence "won't affect anybody who is clean".
While the identity of the doping positive athlete remains unconfirmed, Dunkley fits the description. He finished sixth in the 100 metres final at last month's Jamaican Olympic trials, where the positive test was taken.
The athlete tested positive for the banned substance Boldenone, a favorite among body builders.
Dunkley called in from North Carolina to say he is not aware of any positive test (Jamaica Observer). He is ready to fly out to Beijing.
"I haven't gotten in touch with anybody, but I did try because like I said, all the information that I'm finding out is like you guys (newspaper) calling me and telling me and me seeing the name of a drug (Boldenone) that I've never heard of in my life and making me look like some kind of idiot," the self-coached athlete told the Observer from North Carolina yesterday.
"I'm looking at this drug and it's in comparison with some kind of horse stuff. I mean, that's ridiculous (because) I've never heard of it in my life," added Dunkley, who clocked 10.23 seconds for sixth place in the Men's 100-metre final at the National Track & Field Championship between June 27-29...
Dunkley, who has personal best times of 10.07secs and 20.63 in the 100m and 200m respectively, said he will be leaving the United States for China tomorrow to join the 11-day pre-Olympic camp in Tianjin Province.
"My ticket is valid," he said, adding that he should arrive in China on July 31.
A business incorporates for many reasons and we highly suggest sitting down.
