British Olympic Association lose Olympic drugs ban case

The British Olympic Association have reportedly lost their battle to keep lifetime Olympic bans for drugs cheats.

As expected, the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) have overturned the bylaw, according to BBC Sport.

The decision means that athletes such as sprinter Dwain Chambers and cyclist David Millar will be allowed to compete at this summer's London Games.

CAS are expected to announce their decision formally tomorrow.
