Race Imboden, companion of fencer Ysaora Thibus, would be at the origin of her positive doping test for ostarine, according to testimony from her lawyer to L'Equipe. The transmission which allowed this contamination took place through bodily fluids, says Maître Joëlle Monlouis, lawyer for Thibus.

Since February 8, the date of her suspension, Thibus has maintained her innocence and maintains the hope of participating in the Paris Olympics this summer.
