America's top athletes could be banned from the Olympics and other major international sporting events if the United States follows through on its threat to withdraw funding from the World Anti-Doping Agency , anti-doping leaders told Reuters.
"These governments want us to consider an amendment to the compliance standard meaning that non-payment by a government of its WADA contribution could lead directly to that country's NADO being declared non-compliant with the World Anti-Doping Code. "They ought to spend the time trying to fix and make WADA what the world wants it to be, which is a strong independent WADA.
If the U.S. government was to cut funding it would also lose its spot on the WADA Foundation Board and seats on all committees, WADA says.
