Rana Reider, the personal coach for track stars Andre De Grasse and Lamont Marcell Jacobs, both of whom are competing at Paris 2024, had his Olympic credentials revoked by the Canadian Olympic Committee (COC) on Monday. The COC stated that the decision was made based on 'new information about the appropriateness of Mr. Reider remaining accredited by Team Canada.'
Reider's attorney, Ryan Stevens, defended his client, claiming that the coach was 'unjustly stripped of his Olympic coaching credential' due to 'years-old claims in a lawsuit by former athletes seeking financial gain.'
