Oly: Greek champ Kenteris misses drug test=2 reopens

A senior official at the world athletics' governing body said there appeared to have
been a breakdown in communication in the Greek camp, with team officials failing to tell
the athletes that they should be available for testing on Thursday evening.

"According to our information the Greek team leader was informed but not the athletes.

To our mind this doesn't constitute a refusal," Istvan Gyulai, secretary-general of the
International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF), said.
