Australia's Jamie Kermond was set to make his Olympic debut in Tokyo at the age of 36, but those dreams are now on ice thanks to a recent drug test.
The equestrian athlete was provisionally suspended on Wednesday after testing positive for a metabolite of cocaine, Equestrian Australia announced on Tuesday. Kermond will be barred from all competition while his second sample from a drug test administered in June is tested. If that also comes back positive, Kermond will be out of the Games.
Kermond was set to participate in the Olympics as a show jumper, both in the individual and team competitions. He wasn't a considered a medal contender, but is a veteran rider who has won multiple Australian National Championships with his horse, Yandoo Oaks Constellation.
Kermond has also represented Australia on the international stage for years and helped secure Australia's spots in Tokyo. (Yahoo sports)
