A track and field athlete from Greece’s Olympic team for the 2024 Paris Games in France has tested positive for performance enhancing substances following a random doping check just 10 days before the opening ceremony.
The positive test result was confirmed by the Hellenic Anti-Doping Agency (EOKAN). The athlete is permitted to appeal for a second sample test, or they must accept the positive result of the original test.
Greece’s Olympic delegation includes 101 athletes, 14 of whom compete in track and field.
The identity of the athlete remains unknown.
