One of the top track and field broadcasters in the world, believes that a high percentage of track and field athletes are taking supplements that are on the World Anti-Doping Agency’s banned list. Trinidadian Ato Boldon, a four-time Olympic sprint medallist, made the statement after revelation that five Jamaicans, including former 100-metre world record holder Asafa Powell and his MVP teammate Sherone Simpson failed drugs tests. News surfaced of the positive findings just minutes after it was announced that American star Tyson Gay had also failed a drug test. (Jamaica Gleaner)
