Cycling-Froome open to physiological tests to counter doping suspicion (Reuters)
By Julien Pretot CAUTERETS, France, July 15 (Reuters) – Tour de France leader Chris Froome has said he is willing to undergo physiological tests after this year’s race to put to rest any suspicion of doping. After being lied to for more than a decade by Lance Armstrong, the American who later admitted to cheating his way to seven Tour de France titles, fans easily doubt top performances. “Right here at the moment my focus is on the race but certainly I’m open minded to potentially doing some physiological testing at some point after the Tour or whatever point suits,” Froome told a news conference after retaining his overall leader’s yellow jersey in Wednesday’s 11th stage.
