SafeSport investigating U.S. fencer Andrew Doddo
U.S. fencer Andrew Doddo, who is set to compete at the world championships starting Saturday in Italy, is under investigation by the U.S. Center for SafeSport, USA Fencing confirmed to USA TODAY Sports on Monday.
The news comes less than three weeks after Alen Hadzic, the U.S. fencer who went to the Tokyo Olympics as an alternate despite being under investigation for sexual misconduct, was declared permanently ineligible by SafeSport.
SafeSport is an independent body tasked by Congress with protecting athletes in the Olympic movement.
