Fransson says she was tested after her last match at the wrestling World Cup in September last year. She then did no doping checks until January 9, when she tested positive for the banned substance methyltestosterone.

It may seem strange considering that she is one of Sweden's biggest medal jumpers at the Tokyo Olympics this summer. But the National Sports Federation does not say it is possible with more tests than that.

- We want to test our elite athletes much more often than we do. But we do not have the resources. We have 3,500 tests available per year, and they should be enough for all elite athletes and even outside elite sports, ”says Åke Andrén Sandberg, chairman of RF's doping commission, to Radio Sports.

Jenny Fransson was taken out in the first Olympic squad in late November, but has now, pending the analysis of her B-test, been removed from the squad. As the outlets for the Olympics, you become subject to more frequent doping tests, says Andrén Sandberg.

- Everyone who is taken to the Olympics ends up in a special test program. They are tested much more often, he says.

- It would be great if we could test more, but unfortunately we do not have the resources for it.
