The ITA reports that luger Madeleine Egle has agreed¹ to the consequences for her ADRV under Article 2.4 of the FIL Anti-Doping Rules (FIL ADR).²
Madeleine Egle committed three whereabouts failures within a 12-month period. The athlete did not challenge the ADRV and agreed with the consequences proposed by the ITA. Accordingly, the case was resolved via an acceptance of consequences.
The athlete’s period of ineligibility is from 1 March 2025 until 31 October 2026. Additionally, all the athlete’s individual competitive results from 1 March 2025 are disqualified including forfeiture of medals, points and prizes.
The decision may be challenged before the appeal division of the Court of Arbitration for Sport by the parties with a right of appeal in accordance with Article 13.2.3 of the FIL ADR.
The ITA will not comment further on this case.
¹ Athletes have the right to choose not to have their case referred to a hearing panel. In these instances, the anti-doping organisation will assess the athlete’s case file and establish the applicable consequences pursuant to the anti-doping rules and the athlete will have the right to accept the proposed consequences. If the athlete refuses the proposed consequences, the case is transferred to a hearing panel. This resolution mechanism is provided for in articles 8.3.1 of the FIL Anti-Doping Rules and 8.3 of the World Anti-Doping Code and is commonly referred to as an agreement on consequences and is deemed an FIL/ITA decision.
² Athletes included in a Registered Testing Pool (RTP), such as Madeleine Egle, have the obligation to provide daily whereabouts as well as a specific daily 60-minute time slot where they will be available for testing. The purpose is to allow anti-doping organisations to locate athletes for unannounced out-of-competition testing. Any combination of three missed tests (which relate to the athletes’ unavailability with respect to their 60-minute time slot) and/or filing failures (which are caused by the athletes’ failure to provide accurate whereabouts) committed within a twelve-month period amount to an ADRV as per article 2.4 of the FIL ADR and World Anti-Doping Code.
