Peter Bol Drug Test: Why Was Peter Bol Suspended?
It’s been discovered that Australian track sensation Peter Bol passed “20 tests” following his shocking positive result for a performance-enhancing substance.
Athletics Australia stated on Friday that the Olympic hero had been temporarily suspended after testing positive for EPO in October while out of competition.
Bol vehemently denies using drugs and is determined to prove his innocence while he awaits the results of a backup B sample, which is scheduled to be completed next month.
