The athlete will be able to compete at the Olympics in Paris

One of France's leading fencers, Ysaora Thibus, has announced that she will be able to compete at the Paris Olympics, avoiding disciplinary action by the International Fencing Federation in a case of an abnormal drug test. The 32-year-old Guadeloupean native was suspended in February.

The athlete claimed that she tested positive for the anabolic substance ostarine due to an accidental infection from her partner.

"I am happy to announce my return to competition following the decision of the federation's disciplinary tribunal. I'm relieved to be able to get back on track for the Olympic Games in my home country," ESPN quoted the girl as saying.

Thibus was able to prove that the banned substance entered her system through sexual contact with her husband, fencer Reece Eimboden.

"These last few months have been extremely difficult, and today is the culmination of a long struggle," she added.
