Bol says his provisional suspension has been lifted

Australian runner Peter Bol has released a statement saying his provisional suspension has been lifted after he was informed that testing of his B sample did not confirm the A sample.

The 800-metre national record holder had strongly proclaimed his innocence after failing an out of competition test for EPO. He had been provisionally banned from January 10.

He tweeted a statement on Tuesday morning.

“I was just informed that my B sample did not confirm my A sample,” he said.

“My provisional suspension has been lifted by Sport Integrity Australia. The relief I am feeling is hard to describe.”
