(ANSA) – HAVANA, JUL 27 – The 31-year-old Cuban Yaimé Perez, gold in the disc at the Doha 2019 World Cup and then bronze in the same race at the Tokyo Games, took advantage of a stopover in Miami on the way back to Cuba from Eugene to leave the delegation he was a part of and lose track of himself.
This was announced by the Cuban Institute for Sport, specifying that the javelin specialist Yiselena Ballar and a staff member are also unavailable with Perez. “They have abandoned the group – it is written in a note from the Institute – and for us this constitutes a serious act of indiscipline”.
In Eugene, where for the first time in the history of the World Athletics Championships Cuba did not win medals, Perez was only seventh. (HANDLE).
