FILE - Garrett Scantling, of the United States, makes an attempt in the shot put competition in the men's heptathlon at the World Athletics Indoor Championships in Belgrade, Serbia, on March 18, 2022.

The U.S. Anti-Doping Agency said Friday, Nov. 18, 2022, that the 29-year-old, who won national championships earlier this year, had accepted a three-year ban retroactive to June 27, 2022.
