Why it matters for Marcell Jacobs

Jacobs, the Italian 100m champion, will now have to compete without his coach. He finished fifth in the 100m on Sunday.

What comes next?

Jacobs will attempt to defend his gold with Italy's 4x100 relay team. The Canadian Olympic Committee made the decision to remove Reider after learning of new information.
