(Reuters) - After several doping scandals the Rodchenkov Anti-Doping Act will offer hope that broadcasters and sponsors will get a drug-free competition at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games, United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) chief Travis Tygart said on Friday.
Part of a Hudson Institute panel discussing how the Rodchenkov Act can help clean up doping fraud in international sports, Tygart praised the legislation signed into law on Dec. 4 by then U.S. President Donald Trump as a game-changer .
The Act was named after the whistleblower Grigory Rodchenkov, who helped expose Russiaâs state-sponsored doping programme. It extends U.S. law enforcement jurisdiction to international sporting competitions that involve American athletes or have financial connections to the United States.
