  • Russian Probe Is 'Defining Moment' for Doping, Says Tygart
    Russian Probe Is ©Defining Moment© For Doping, Says Tygart USADA Chief Travis Tygart has remarked findings about the widespread doping in Russia could prove to be a turning point for all sports. Tygart told a high-level doping conference in Singapore that the probe into allegations of doping in Russia is looming as the critical battle in the global fight against drugs in sport. The USADA chief remarked this investigation that WADA has undertaken into Russia is so critically important right now. Tygart added there are allegations out there that have been portrayed in the media and there are facts that back some of those allegations. The chief of USADA also said we can argue about the credibility of those facts at this point but there are facts out there that prompted WADA©s investigation. He went on to add that©s why it©s a defining moment, if not the defining moment, where a country that©s alleged, along with its anti-doping organizations, its lab, other sport federations, of doping its athletes in order to win on the world stage. Tygart added when there©s evidence of these types of allegations, it©s incumbent upon the overseers of the whole anti-doping program, WADA, and its role under the code, to fully vet and investigate the allegations that have been made and hold any people that have violated the rules accountable. He also remarked that ultimately is what gives confidence to clean athletes around the world who are otherwise being held to the highest standards. Tygart also said if one country is not held to that standard and they go to the (Olympic) Games and they win.

The fusion of Latin, Caribbean, African and European influences has elevated Greater Miami on the world stage with a bravado uniquely its own, attracting a wide cross-section of visitors from around the globe. Signature destination marketing programs along with infrastructure and real estate investment have propelled Miami- Dade County as one of the fastest growing counties in the eastern U.S. in 2019, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Today, Greater Miami has entered a new era where it must address numerous challenges brought about by its status and success as a global destination. Specifically, with regard to the visitor economy, there are many complex issues relating to mobility, workforce development, inclusivity, affordability and sustainability that will require the public and private sectors to collaborate more intentionally than ever before to address effectively. The Strategic Plan for Greater Miami and the Beaches is a 5-year roadmap to outline how the local tourism and hospitality industry can navigate a future ripe with new opportunities amid those challenges. To inform the development of the plan, the Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau (GMCVB), in partnership with the InterVISTAS and MMGY NextFactor consultant teams, convened key industry stakeholders, elected officials and hundreds of residents across the county.

Many of them lined up for multiple events and everyone dug deep for the team.

Even now, his leadership continues as he carries on with his role as the conscience of athletics. This article from this morning's Melbourne Age is a good example of the inpetus Jared continues to provide. And what he says is true – he is almost certainly been the biggest loser in this whole drugs debacle. Seven times he has been denied a place higher on the podium because of a drug cheat or a suspected drug cheat (aka trained by Viktor Chegin).
