A positive drugs test normally marks the end of an athlete's Olympic dream. But USA goalkeeper Hope Solo will be allowed to take her place at London 2012. The 30-year old tested positive for Canrenone last month but its position as a specified substance means Solo only receives a public warning. 'Specified substances' are those which are more susceptible to credible non-doping explanations. She says the substance came from a prescribed medication and acted in accordance with the US Anti-Doping Agency. Solo is aiming for a second successive gold medal, after backstopping the team to success in 2008.
