In July 2022 World Rugby reported an anti-doping rule violation against the Chilean rugby player Vincente Tredinick after his sample tested positive for the prohibited substance Clomifene.
Following notification the Athlete gave a prompt admission, waived his right for a hearing, accepted a provisional suspension and the sanction proposed by World Rugby.
The Athlete admitted the intentional use of the substance. Because he gave a prompt admission and acceptance of sanction within the set deadline he received a 1 year reduction from World Rugby.
Therefore World Rugby decides on 9 February 2023 to impose a 3 year period of ineligibility on the Athlete, starting on the date of the provisional suspension, i.e. on 27 September 2022.
