- The Times: 'Testing riders at 2am is wrong.

The Times: 'Man who paved way .' (Martyn Ziegler, 26 June 2026)
A sports governing body owes a duty to its athletes and fans alike to ensure that the playing field is level and the outcome is determined solely by the athletes' natural talents, skill and effort, and not by confounding factors such as performance-enhancing drugs or equipment, or insuperable natural advantages in age, sex, or weight.
Jonathan Taylor KC, with his unparalleled experience in the field over the past 28 years, in particular as lead advocate on some of the most prominent and important sports law cases ever fought, provides a detailed insider account of those cases as a means of illustrating the practical, ethical and legal issues confronted by regulators who are seeking to protect what makes sport such a unique and compelling spectacle.
Jonathan has a range of stories to tell that give us a fascinating insight into what is really involved in fighting for the integrity of sport. These include prosecuting the spot-fixing case against the Pakistani cricketers in 2010, helping the sports movement respond to the state-sponsored doping scheme in Russia from 2011 to 2014, policing the boundaries of male and female competition categories in the Caster Semenya case in 2019, and litigating whether double amputee Blake Leeper had an unfair performance advantage over able-bodied athletes.
