Thiago Braz: Olympic pole vault champion Thiago Braz has been provisionally suspended from all competitions after a positive doping test, the Athletics Integrity Unit (AIU) said on Friday night. The 29-year-old Brazilian was found to have traces of the performance-enhancing drug ostarine in his urine following a routine test.
He will face a tribunal hearing and could be banned for up to four years if found guilty, a Xinhua report said.
The AIU did not disclose when the sample was taken.
