Christian Coleman: World 100m champion banned for two years for missing drugs test

The American missed tests on January 16 and December 9 of last year, and was also charged with a filing error in connection with an attempted test on April 26. Three missed tests results in an anti-doping rule violation and a two-year suspension if it is the athlete's first offence. Coleman accepted the first missed test but challenged the other two rules, however the Athletics Integrity United (AIU) Disciplinary Tribunal did not find in his favour. https://twitter.com/ChrisChavez/status/1321141153232769026 As a result, the world 100 meters champion has been banned for two years and is ineligible to race until May 13 2022. The 24-year-old, who also won 4x100m relay gold with the US team at the 219 World Athletics Championships, would have been the favourite to be the world's fastest man at next year's Olympics. Instead he will miss Tokyo 2020 in another blow for the sport.
