London: Rafael Nadal and British Olympic great Mo Farah said they have nothing to hide after their medical records were the latest to be leaked by a cyber-hacking group on Monday.
They are among more than 60 international athletes who have had their medical files &mdash; mostly therapeutic use exemptions (TUEs) &mdash; published online by the so-called Fancy Bears, who have hacked into World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) records.
Spanish tennis ace Nadal and four-time Olympic champion distance runner Farah were shown to have used TUEs in the past to gain permission to take substances that figure on WADA's banned list.
"When you ask permission to take something for therapeutic reasons and they give it, you're not taking anything prohibited," Nadal said. "It's not news, it's just inflammatory." Nadal, who has twice been granted a TUE, said he had never taken anything to improve his performance but took what doctors advised him for his troubled knee.
Meanwhile, a spokesperson for Farah said: "Mo has nothing to hide and doesn't have a problem with any of his (medical) information being released &mdash; in fact he voluntarily shared his blood data with the Sunday Times last year."
