MONTREAL -- The World Anti-Doping Agency has detailed serious failings of doping control management at the Rio de Janeiro Olympics, saying the system was saved from collapsing only by the enormous resourcefulness and goodwill of some key staff. Laurent Brossoit Jersey .In a 55-page report from its independent observer team led by British lawyer Jonathan Taylor, WADA said the logistical issues, which put a strain on the testing process, were foreseeable and entirely avoidable during the Games in August.The report blamed a lack of coordination, budget cutbacks, tension between the local organizing committee and Brazils anti-doping agency, and inadequate training for the problems that included days when only half of the out-of-competition samples could be collected in the athletes village.Ultimately, many athletes targeted for testing in the athletes village simply could not be found and the mission had to be aborted, the report said. On some days, up to 50 per cent of planned target tests were aborted in this way.The report, which was released by the Montreal-based agency Thursday, said the sample collection process in the village was so strained that it came close to breaking point.Ultimately, it was only due to the enormous resourcefulness and goodwill of some key doping control personnel working at the games that the process did not break down entirely, the report said. Due to their initiative, tenacity and professionalism in the face of great difficulties, the many problems identified above were patched over and sample collection was conducted in a manner that ensured the identity and integrity of the samples.In another key failure, the report said no out-of-competition testing was conducted in soccer and that there was little or no in-competition blood testing in some high risk-sports, including weightlifting.Doping was heavily in the spotlight in the months leading up to the Rio Games, with allegations of state-sponsored doping in Russia leading to sanctions against some Russian athletes and the retesting of 840 samples from the 2008 and 2012 Olympics barring dozens of other athletes from competing in Brazil.During the Rio Games, seven athletes in four sports -- weightlifting, cycling, swimming and track and field -- were sanctioned for doping offenses. The seven included one medalist -- weightlifter Izzat Artykov of Kyrgyzstan, who was stripped of a bronze in the mens 69-kilogram division.WADA said the role of its observer team is to help instill confidence in the quality, effectiveness and reliability of the anti-doping program for the Olympics and to make recommendations for improvements.Richard Budgett, the International Olympic Committees medical director, said the report showed the integrity of the program was ensured despite some challenges the organizing committee had to overcome ... such as a lack of resources and trained volunteers and staff.He said the reports recommendations would be studied by the IOC and passed on to a new independent testing body that is being set up ahead of the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang, South Korea.Many of the recommendations related to training and treatment of volunteers, proper attention to rosters and protocol, more lead-time for doping control officers in the venues, and better logistics and equipment to locate athletes for out-of-competition testing.Poor planning, transport issues and a lack of catering for chaperones resulted in a higher-than-expected rate of absences, adding to the burden on doping control officers and other delegates.A total of 3,237 athletes from 137 countries were tested during the Games, representing 28.6 percent of the 11,303 athletes who participated. Of those, 2,611 -- or 23.1 percent -- were tested once, 527 were tested twice, 81 were tested three times, and one was tested six times.Some problems outlined by WADAs observers:? There were almost 500 fewer tests conducted than organizers had planned during the Games. The samples taken included 4,037 urine tests, 411 blood tests and 434 blood plus ABP or ABP blood tests for a total of 4,882, significantly short of the 5,380 targeted.? Data entry errors led to nearly 100 samples analyzed by the anti-doping laboratory not being matched to an athlete. WADA said about 40 percent of those were because of the recording of an incorrect bottle code in the computer system but noted that Rio organizers assisted the IOC in correcting the errors so the samples could be matched to athletes and their testing histories could be updated.? The expected daily maximum of 350 urine samples was never reached during the Games. The highest daily total was 307 on Aug. 11, but on the majority of days, fewer than 200 urine samples were received.? Blood testing sections were underused, with some shifts at the laboratory having no blood samples to analyze at the beginning of the Games.As a result ... full analytical capacity was not exploited, which is disappointing, given that the latest equipment and best experts in the world were available, the report said.On a positive note, WADA commended the IOC for embracing new advances in the fight against doping, including the creation of the Pre-Games Intelligence Taskforce, which reported on July 24 that 4,125 of the 11,470 athletes on the entrants list for the Games had no record of any testing in 2016, including 1,913 from sports identified as higher risk.WADA also said the Brazilian anti-doping laboratory was superbly equipped and operated very securely and generally very efficiently, and now represents an outstanding legacy from the Games for the anti-doping movement in South America. Ryan Stanton Jersey . - NASCAR announced a 33-race schedule for the 2014 Nationwide Series with virtually no changes from this years slate. Drake Caggiula Jersey . At a news conference Tuesday where it was thought that the fiery Schallibaum may be shown the door after a dismal finish to the Major League Soccer season, team president Joey Saputo said no decision has been made on whether the Swiss Volcano will be back in 2014. http://www.oilersauthority.com/ . The Swede became the first golfer to win the PGA Tours FedEx Cup and European Tours Race to Dubai in the same season. "It is still taking a little time to sink in what Ive achieved this week as was the case when I won the FedEx Cup but then it just kept getting better and better as the days went on and I am sure this will be the same," he said. SUN CITY, South Africa -- There was a hole-in-one and an albatross two on a par-5 hole at the Nedbank Golf Challenge in South Africa on Friday, while Alex Noren collected five birdies over the back nine holes to take a 2-shot lead at the halfway mark.Noren, the tours form player who is seeking a fourth title since July, shot a 5-under 67 at Sun City to move 8 under overall. As Noren climbed to the top of the leaderboard, Swedish compatriot and European Tour money list leader Henrik Stenson fell off the pace, a blow to his hopes of wrestling the Race to Dubai crown from Rory McIlroy.Stenson was one off the lead after the opening round but found the going tougher Friday with three straight bogeys on the front nine and a double-bogey seven on the back. Seeking the victory that could wrap up the Race to Dubai, Stenson carded a 2-over 74 for 1-under overall and a tie for 17th.The Nedbank Challenge is the penultimate event of the tours season, with just the World Tour Championship in Dubai to come next weekend.Norens back-nine surge, which saw birdies at Nos. 10, 11, 13, 15 and 17 saw him overtake Paraguays Fabrizio Zanotti, who slipped back into a share of second with successivve bogeys on his last two holes. Patrick Maroon Jersey. Four other players, including former British Open champion Louis Oosthuizen, were level with Zanotti on 6 under, two behind Noren.Zanotti had earlier recorded the first hole-in-one in the history of the tournament with his 7-iron from the tee on the short fourth hole rolling in. Denmarks Lasse Jensen provided something as spectacular when he holed his second shot from way out on the par-5 No. 14.If Stenson wins in Sun City and Danny Willett, his nearest challenger in the Race to Dubai, fails to finish second on his own, Stenson will take the money list title.Willett was 5-over-par and way down the leaderboard after opening with rounds of 75 and 74 at Sun City. But with Stensons struggles on Friday, the race could well go down to Dubai next weekend when McIlroy may be back in contention. McIlroy, who has won the money list the last two seasons and is third in the current standings, skipped last weekends Turkish Airlines Open and the Nedbank and is due to return to action for the season-closer in Dubai.
