CJ Ujah Rejoins British Relay Team After Doping Ban

CJ Ujah has returned to the British 4x100m relay team for the World Athletics Relays, his first inclusion since a doping scandal at the 2021 Tokyo Olympics.

  • CJ Ujah, previously banned for doping, has been recalled to Britain's 4x100m relay team for upcoming World Athletics Relays in the Bahamas.
  • Ujah served a 22-month ban after testing positive for banned substances at the Tokyo Olympics, which led to the team being stripped of a silver medal.
  • Despite controversy, Ujah was cleared of intentional doping, with investigations attributing the violation to a contaminated supplement.
  • Teammate Richard Kilty, who had previously expressed deep disappointment in Ujah, is also named in the eight-man squad.
  • The team aims for redemption and qualification for the Paris Olympics at the upcoming event in May.
