Chris Froome speaks out about the use of TUEs in cycling

27 September 2016 12:15

Three-time Tour de France winner Chris Froome has described the rules allowing athletes to take drugs that would normally be banned under sport's anti-doping rules as "open to abuse" and in need of urgent reform.

In a post on his Twitter feed, Froome said he does not have a "win at all costs" approach to sport and has never pushed the boundaries of what is allowed.

And in an apparent reference to the controversy surrounding his former Team Sky team-mate Sir Bradley Wiggins, Froome said athletes need "to take responsibility for themselves, until more stringent protocols can be put in place".
