Nigeria’s Tobi Amusan has been cleared to compete at the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris.
The Court of Arbitration for Sports (CAS) dismissed appeals by the World Athletics (WA) and the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) against the women’s 100-metre hurdles world record holder.
The CAF concurred with an earlier verdict by the World Athletics Disciplinary Tribunal (WADT) that found Amusan not guilty of any anti-doping rule violations.
The 28-year-old was suspended last year by the Athletics Integrity Unit (AIU) for missing three drug tests within a 12-month period.
The body sought a two-year period of ineligibility for Amusan.
The suspension was upturned by the AIU, which allowed her to run at the 2023 World Athletics Championship.
This ruling by CAS marks the end of a legal process that began with the WADT’s initial decision on August 17, 2023.
