LAUSANNE, Switzerland (AP) — One athlete tested positive for doping in reanalysis of 1,195 samples from the 2010 Vancouver Olympics.
The International Olympic Committee says three positive tests in total all came from the same athlete, who was not identified.
The IOC says 70 percent of urine samples stored since 2010, awaiting improved laboratory tests, were reanalyzed “including the samples from all medalists and all Russian athletes.”
Russia finished 11th in the medals table, with three gold among 15 medals in total.
World Anti-Doping Agency investigators believe Russia’s performance in Vancouver as motive for a doping program at the 2014 Sochi Olympics. An IOC panel is investigating suspected Russian doping in Sochi.
The IOC says the Vancouver reanalysis program has ended ahead of a statute of limitations expiring in February.
