The ITF’s third-quarter report on its anti-doping efforts reveals a big increase in efforts in the July-through-September quarter.
There were more in-competition urine tests in that period than in the first two quarters combined.
There were three times as many in-competition blood tests as there were from January through June.
Conversely, most of the in-competition biological passport samples were taken the first half of the season. Only 31 of the 143 total for the men were drawn in the third quarter.
In all, 4,899 samples were taken in 2016. The total through three quarters this year already stands at 4,741.
