Froome has 'no issue' with certificates leak in WADA hack (Reuters)

LONDON (Reuters) - Triple Tour de France champion Chris Froome says he has "no issue" with his private medical records being leaked in a cyber attack by Russian hackers on the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA).

A group known as APT28 and Fancy Bear by U.S. cyber-security researchers released a second batch of data on Wednesday with the British cyclist among 25 athletes to have their Therapeutic Use Exemptions (TUEs) publicized.

"I've openly discussed my TUEs with the media and have no issues with the leak which only confirms my statements," said 2013, 2015 and 2016 Tour winner Froome in a news release.
