Tunisia Says Hafnaoui Set For 'Probable' Return To Racing At French Open Next Month But Suspension In Force Pending CAS Case
Are reports out of Tunisia simply mistaken or has the Tokyo 2020ne Olympic 400m free champion who bypassed Paris 2024 been told that the provisional suspension he accepted last December for three missed anti-doping tests has been lifted?
The French Open Championships in Le Mans next month will mark the 'probable' return to competition of Tokyo2020one Olympic 400m freestyle champion Ahmed Ayoub Hafnaoui, Tunisian media suggests today.
For probable, read "highly unlikely": the swimmer accepted a provisional suspension last December, while inquiries are conducted into missed out-of-competition tests. That suspension remains in place, World Aquatics, on word from the Aquatics Integrity Unit, has confirmed to SOS.
