  • Last week, the IAAF allowed Pistorius to circulate the findings from the Cologne tests to a number of other experts. Based on their opinions, Van Zyl believes that Pistorius still has a strong case. “Everyone that came back to us said that there were too many variables that weren’t considered and that more testing should be done,” he said.

    But Van Zyl has not given up hope for Pistorius, who has yet to match the automatic qualifying time for the 2008 Olympics of 45.55 seconds in the 400 meters. “He still wants to be an Olympian, but it’s not looking like it’ll be Beijing,” he said.
