Australian showjumpers Edwina Tops-Alexander and Katie Laurie are being allowed to compete in the individual jumping competition at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games.
The pair had been part of a three-person team with Jamie Kermond, who was provisionally suspended this week after returning a positive test for cocaine. The team’s reserve member, Rowan Willis, had already withdrawn.
Late yesterday, the Australian Olympic Committee was informed that the pair will be permitted to compete as individuals.
The decision means Australia is now fielding two individuals for the event, whereas 15 other countries have one individual representative. There will be 19 countries competing for team honours.

Sydney: Equestrian Australia said Wednesday it had provisionally suspended a member of the Olympic show jumping team over a positive test for cocaine.
The governing body said Jamie Kermond returned a positive A-sample for a metabolite of cocaine following a test conducted by Sport Integrity Australia on June 26.
It said Kermond was banned from competing at the Tokyo Olympics but had the right to have his B-sample analysed.
The 36-year-old Kermond was expected to make his Olympic debut at Tokyo.
The Australian Olympic Committee said in a statement that it was aware of Kermond’s provisional suspension and that its selection committee would meet to consider his status on the team.
