The Morning Standard
|June 28, 2025
IT is starting to be bit more frequent. Weeks after Sneha K was omitted from the Asian Athletics Championships team, middle-distance runner Twinkle Chaudhary tested positive.
According to the World Athletics anti-doping watchdog Athletics Integrity Unit (AIU), Twinkle tested positive for anabolic and androgenic steroid (AAS) Methyltestosterone. She was part of the team that travelled to Gumi in May and is understood to have been tested there. This is another case of high-profile athletes, a national and international medallist testing positive after javelin thrower Shivpal Singh and quarter-miler Sneha this year.
