美国选手奈顿兴奋剂案，被提起上诉！
The Athletics Integrity Unit (AIU) announced on Wednesday that it has filed an appeal with the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) in the case relating to American sprinter Erriyon Knighton who was allowed to compete at Paris 2024 after being cleared over a doping case.
Knighton tested positive for the banned steroid trenbolone during an out-of-competition test on March 26. The United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) opted not to impose a suspension, attributing the positive result to contaminated meat. This decision allowed Knighton to compete in the Paris Olympics qualifiers, a move that has sparked widespread concern.
在巴黎奥运会田径男子200米决赛中，奈顿名列第四。赛后，奈顿没有在混合采访区接受记者采访就匆匆离开。根据AIU官网记录，对于奈顿的上诉时间是8月8日，也就是200米决赛的当天。
The 20-year-old eventually ranked fourth in the final of men's 200m in Paris, and he refused any interviews after the race, leaving reporters waiting in vain.

"I smell conspiracy. He was cleared in time for the Olympics then immediately after his case resumes. If he were Kenyan he wouldn't have been even allowed for trials," commented a Twitter user.
"No surprise, I was pretty shocked about the silence around his presence in Paris," another user said.
Having been founded in 2017, AIU is an independent organization that manages all threats to the integrity of the sport of athletics.
