Not sure where to post it but did anyone else see the video in YouTube of our favourite drug taker Shacari Richardson being chucked off a plane, and giving it the whole "I'm a superstar and your just a regular Joe" speech. She's awful.

Sha'Carri.... She'll NEVER learn.

Interesting to see what Guy Learmonth has to say

"Divine" Oduduru, I believe is the athlete you are talking about.... Turned 25 last October. Ran for Texas Tech University. Made headlines by winning the NCAA Division 1 Outdoor Championship 100m/200m double in wind legal times of 9.88 (+0.8m/s) and 19.73 (+0.8m/s) on the same day in 2019.

Now formally suspended: Divine Oduduru: Nigerian sprinter provisionally banned for anti-doping violations - BBC Sport

It was pretty obvious at the time who "Athlete 2" was in the legal documents regarding the Okagbare case, especially when he just abruptly stopped competing following his very successful 2021 season, and there was no news of any injury issues with him that was preventing him take part in the 2022 season.

And considering what was revealed about the depth of Okagbare's cheating, her connections to Eric Lira, and "Athlete 2's" connections to the same guy, I'd say Oduduru is going to get that 6 year ban confirmed soon enough.

Good riddance.

Whereabouts failure for Raven Saunders, Olympic silver medallist in shot. Quite a short ban, only 18 months from last August, so she'll be able to go to Paris next year..

What was interesting about his story was that he moved to Iten, Kenya aged 17 to "train with best", which is quite a commitment for a 17 year old. At that age he probably thought hard work and dedication would bring him medals.
