NEW YORK :Olympic 100 metres silver and bronze medallist Fred Kerley has been provisionally suspended by the Athletics Integrity Unit for whereabouts failures, the organisation said on Tuesday.
The 2022 World Champion in the 100m withdrew from the U.S. track and field trials late last month, writing on social media that he was: “Taking some time out to get back on track.”
“The 100m should be a straight sprint. 2025 has presented many hurdles,” he wrote on X. “Thanks to all my supporters.”
His representative was not immediately available to comment.
