20 athletes late scratchings from Tokyo due to testing failures

Sports Law Combine -

Twenty athletes qualified in the Olympic track and field competition are ineligible to compete because their Federations missed minimum testing requirements, the Athletics Integrity Unit revealed as the Athletics program gets underway in Tokyo today.

The Athletics Integrity Unit ruled the athletes out because their high-risk National Athletics Federations failed to meet those minimum requirements under Rule 15 of the World Athletics Anti-Doping Rules.
