Floyd Landis lost his expensive and explosive doping case when arbitrators upheld the results of a test that showed the 2006 Tour de France champion used synthetic testosterone to fuel his spectacular comeback victory, The Associated Press has learned.
The decision means Landis, who repeatedly has denied using performance-enhancing drugs, must forfeit his Tour de France title and is subject to a two year ban.
Floyd Landis is also trying to accuse his former team mate, Lance Armstrong of using "performance enhancing drugs." Lance Armstrong is denying these accusations.
