PARIS (AP) — The French Cycling Federation has cleared former Olympic champion Jeannie Longo of breaching anti-doping rules.
The 53-year-old Longo faced a disciplinary hearing because the French Anti-Doping Agency said she had three whereabouts violations. She allegedly broke anti-doping rules requiring athletes to disclose where they can be located for testing twice in the past 18 months and a third time on June 20, while training in the United States.
But the FFC’s disciplinary committee says in a statement that “Jeannie Longo is cleared of all disciplinary action.”
