THE WORLD ANTI Doping Agency (WADA) have released their annual doping report, detailing drug testing in sport in 2014.
Among many other details in the meaty 202 page document, it was revealed that there was one “atypical” finding from the 2014 Six Nations, out of more than 100 in-competition tests.
The report does not reveal any details as to the location or date of the test, but it does state there were no positive tests during the competition.
The WADA report glossary states that an atypical finding is not necessarily a positive test, but does require further investigation.
“The Atypical Findings (ATF) in this report are not to be confused with adjudicated or sanctioned Anti‐Doping Rule Violations (ADRV). “Atypical Finding ” is defined in the World Anti‐Doping Code as “a report from a laboratory or other WADA‐approved entity which requires further investigation as provided by the International Standard for Laboratories or related Technical Documents prior to the determination of an Adverse Analytical Finding “. Atypical Findings may correspond to multiple measurements performed on the same Athlete , such as in cases of longitudinal studies on testosterone.”
