BREAKING NEWS: Marathon world record holder Ruth Chepngetich has been provisionally suspended by the Athletics Integrity Unit after testing positive for Hydrochlorothiazide in a test on March 14th.

Hydrochlorothiazide, can be used to mask the presence of banned drugs. The AIU notes she had an estimated concentration of 3800 ng/mL in urine.

The positive test was reported to the AIU on April 3rd. She was notified and interviewed in person by the AIU in Kenya on April 16th. Chepngetich withdrew from this year's London Marathon on April 18th and stated she not in the right condition, both mentally and physically, to compete.

AIU head Brett Clothier (via press release): “When there is a positive test for diuretics and masking agents, a provisional suspension is not mandatory under the World Anti-Doping Code. Chepng'etich was not provisionally suspended by the AIU at the time of notification, however, on 19 April, she opted for a voluntary provisional suspension while the AIU’s investigation was ongoing. In the intervening months, the AIU continued its investigation and today issued a Notice of Charge and imposed its own provisional suspension."

Chepngetich has the right to have the case heard before a Disciplinary Tribunal.

Last year, Chepngetich shattered the women's marathon world record in 2:09:56 at the Chicago Marathon.

Watch the highlights….

Incredible win - surely the one most dramatic in the history of Australian golf.

Fantastic.

Grace Kim wins the playoff to claim her first Major championship! 🏆

Crazy scenes and drama.

Eagle in regulation to force the playoff. Takes a penalty and then holes the chip for birdie.

And back they go to 18 again.

[LPGA @LPGA]

Grace Kim are you KIDDING?!

She chips in on the first playoff hole after hitting her approach in the penalty area 🔥

[David Culbert @Culbert_Report]

@andrewbogut That’s all they have. … ‘Move on Champ’. They know of course how they were fooled. Feel for them.

@rickydbryan Crimes don’t have a use by date.

All those who abused
me and others for questioning the tyrannical and nonsensical Covid restrictions and lockdowns that weren’t based on ‘science’ or ‘health advice’ at all, feel free to drop your apology in the comments below.

[David Culbert @Culbert_Report]

@leighjones0212 Closed a state on a whim. No wonder you just want people to ‘move on’.

[David Culbert @Culbert_Report]

@7Scott77 Admire your devotion.

[David Culbert @Culbert_Report]

@leighjones0212 It’s great being here knowing we kept it alive despite all the odds and challenges. Fantastic to see.

[David Culbert @Culbert_Report]

@perrisken Thank you Ken. It was a great championship.

[David Culbert @Culbert_Report]

@TomCRobertson @_zacharygates @ChrisChavez @macfleet I don’t believe any times I see from Kenyans. And many others. Shoes and doping mean the times are just simply not believable.

Darts should be in the Olympics.

It would be nuts in Brisbane 2032.

WHAT A MOMENT FOR PAOLO NEBRIDA! 🇵🇭

Many looked the other way and some did all they could to cover it up. They should all hang their heads in shame.

Hopefully a full review removes all those still working in sport and certainly those still working in athletics.

Absolutely disgusting.

Athletics Australia acknowledges the highly concerning reports about the conduct of Alex Parnov during his time as a pole vault coach at the Western Australian Institute of Sport (WAIS) between 1998 and 2019, as well as the subsequent WAIS responses to complaints that were made.

@3AWNeilMitchell @Quartermain10 He would have loved every 20.04 of it!

[David Culbert @Culbert_Report]

Gout Gout… lets it all out.

What a run this is.

Hard to have the lid on when you do this at 16.

Top end speed and capacity to hold it to the line is rare. Bolt like.

[Tim Rosen @timrosen35]

GOUT GOUT 20.04 OPEN AUSTRALIAN RECORD AT AGE 16.

PETER NORMAN’S 56 YEAR OLD AUSTRALIA RECORD IS NO MORE.

2ND FASTEST ALL TIME U18. FASTER THAN USAIN BOLT SAME AGE.

I don’t even have any more words right now.

Why would you get into the ring with Mike Tyson?

That guy is mean.

Punishing aspiration when living….

And now when you die they punish your family.

Cooked.

I see the cost of dying is set to rise in Victoria . The tax on releasing wills is going up. The fee on a $3 million estate is set to go from $2,300 to $7,200. #victoria
