Can athletes participating in the Enhanced Games be sanctioned?

Coercion against athletes participating in the Enhanced Games is possible only within certain limits. To sanction an athlete, they must have committed one of the eleven anti-doping rule violations, unless a so-called “out-of-competition” test is conducted that is, outside of competitions organised by entities that are signatories to the World Anti-Doping Code. This remains possible, but it will be necessary to identify the legal basis on which the athlete can be sanctioned. Communicating about a future sanction without specifying the violation seems risky.
