Spanish tennis ace Nadal and four-time Olympic champion distance runner Farah were shown to have used TUEs in the past to gain permission to take substances that figure on WADA's banned list. TUEs can be issued to athletes who have an illness or condition that requires the use of normally prohibited medication. Far from complaining about the leak of his files — believed to be the work of Russian hackers — Nadal said he would support the publishing of all medical records. The first of Farah's two TUEs was in 2008 for the same drug prescribed to fellow Olympic champion Wiggins — triamcinolone, a type of steroid.
