PARIS, June 16 (Reuters) - British sprinter Dwain Chambers could take part in next month's Paris Golden League meeting despite his doping-tainted past, organisers said on Tuesday.
"I abide by the (International federation) IAAF rules, which allow an athlete coming back from a suspension to race," meeting organiser Laurent Boquillet told French sports daily L'Equipe.
"If, one week before (the meeting), his performances justify an invitation because he is fast, I will invite him. Right now, he is just on a list of probable (participants)."
Chambers, 31, completed a two-year doping ban in 2006 after failing a test for the steroid THG in 2003. He was left out of the Rome and Berlin Golden League meetings.
