Cycling-Tour de France winner Landis vows to clear name (Reuters) Updated: 2006-08-08 14:04
WASHINGTON, Aug 7 - Embattled Tour de France winner Floyd Landis vowed on
Monday to clear his name.
"I have a new goal, to prove myself innocent," Landis told ABC's Good Morning
America.
Samples taken from Landis during last month's Tour revealed excessive amounts
of the male sex hormone testosterone and the American faces being stripped of
victory and a two-year ban.
The U.S. Cycling Federation has already referred the case to the United
States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA).
