Default Justin Gatlin tests positive for steroids

Apparently tested positive (A and B samples) after April 22 Kansas Relays for high levels of testosterone or one of its precurssors.

Could warrent a lifetime ban!

Gatlin said he tested positive after the Kansas Relays on April 22. Three weeks later, he tied the 100-meter world record by running 9.77 seconds at a meet in Qatar. However, Gatlin faces much worse than the prospect of losing his share of the world mark if he can't fight his way out of this positive test: Because of a previous positive for the use of a stimulant, he could be hit with a lifetime ban.
