Montreal (AFP) – Russia was the top doping offender in 2014 accounting for 148 of the 1,693 failed tests recorded, the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) said Wednesday.
Athletics accounted for 200 of the violations, coming second behind bodybuilding (207) in the WADA blacklist in its annual report for 2014.
Russia, which could miss the Rio Olympics athletics because of a doping scandal, was followed by Italy (123), India (96), Belgium (91), France (91), Turkey (73), Australia (49), China (49), Brazil (46) and South Korea (43) as the top 10 offending countries.
