Australian swimmer Shayna Jack says she will use a case involving a Canadian pole vaulter to help prove her innocence in the ASADA doping case against her.
The case Jack referred to involved Canadian pole vaulter Shawn Barber, who successfully used this defence to avoid a two-year ban and compete at the Rio Olympics in 2016.
An independent arbitrator ruled there had been"no fault or negligence" by Barber, who met a woman to"relieve stress" ahead of the Canadian Olympic trials.Barber said in a statement at the time:"At no time during my actions, did I even fathom the possibility of being able to be contaminated with cocaine.
