Dunn said that she will continue to “resolve” the matter. But officials have yet to indicate what further efforts they have planned with the results. Travis T. Tygart, the chief executive of the United States Anti-Doping Agency, additionally would not detail to news the type of testosterone that was discovered.
Dunn was set to run in a relay pool. Max Siegel, chief executive of USA Track & Field, said in a statement today that the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency will further handle all issues concerning the matter. “Debbie Dunn took the appropriate measures by proactively withdrawing from the Olympic team.” He added “At this point, her case is being handled by the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency, which will adjudicate the matter.”
“I do not want any issue like this to distract from my teammates’ focus for the biggest meet of their lives,” Dunn said in a news statement Friday. “I wish Team USA best in London as I work toward resolving this matter.”
