LONDON: Colombia's Wimbledon and U.S. Open doubles champion Robert Farah has escaped a doping ban after an ITF investigation accepted his claim that he ingested a banned steroid through contaminated beef cooked by his mother.
He pulled out of the Australian Open for personal reasons before announcing the failed anti-doping test. "Thank you for the belief and support I received," Farah, who in 2018 received a suspended three-month ban for promoting a gambling website on social media, said on Twitter. He insisted he had"no intention of trying to cheat" and that he did know that eating the beef could result in an anti-doping rule violation.
