The pair had been part of a three-person team with Jamie Kermond, who was provisionally suspended this week after returning a positive test for cocaine. The team’s reserve member, Rowan Willis, had already withdrawn. Late yesterday, the Australian Olympic Committee was informed that the pair will be permitted to compete as individuals. The decision means Australia is now fielding two individuals for the event, whereas 15 other countries have one individual representative. There will be 19 countries competing for team honours.

Katie Laurie (Getty) Edwina and Katie have both worked extremely hard to earn their place on the Australian team and we are delighted they will get the opportunity to realise their Olympic aspirations in arena at Tokyo.

Team member Jamie Kermond was provisionally suspended this week under the Australian National Anti-Doping Policy. Following a test conducted by Sport Integrity Australia on June 26,  2021, Kermond’s A-sample tested positive for a metabolite of cocaine, which is prohibited in-competition by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) and the Australian National Anti-Doping Policy. Kermond is prohibited from participating in any WADA compliant event, including the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games, while the provisional suspension is in place. Kermond has the opportunity to have his B-sample analysed, Equestrian Australia said in a statement, adding that the organisation had offered support services to Kermond.
