MONTREAL: Doping cases in international sport rose 13% in 2017 against the year before, the annual report of the World Anti-Doping Agency said Thursday.
Brazil had 84 and Russia 82, said the report, issued on the same day that Russia said it would contest its ban from major sporting events over doping violations. Widespread, state-sponsored doping in Russia, notably between 2011 and 2015, was revealed in an independent report released three years ago by sports lawyer Richard McLaren.
China, India, Belgium, Spain and South Africa completed the list of top 10 nations with doping violations for the period covered by Wada’s report.
