US Anti-Doping official calls World Agency fox guarding hen house at congressional hearing
US Anti-Doping Agency CEO Travis Tygart concluding testimony at a House Energy and Commerce Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations hearing on doping in Olympic swimming a month before the Paris Games stresses the importance of independence in anti-doping efforts, criticizing World Anti-Doping Agency's lack of it due to sport leaders with conflicting interests on its board, argues that WADA cannot effectively promote and police sports simultaneously, and calls for a strong, independent global watchdog to protect athletes' rights and the Olympic Games, rather than a lap dog of sport or favored nations.
