Koyanshki’s positive test occurred at Bulgaria’s National Diving Championships on July 27, and his suspension, issued by the Bulgarian Swimming Federation, was effective beginning Oct. 20.

Carboxy-THC is a Cannabinoid and listed in Class S8 on WADA’s List of Prohibited Substances. Substances in S8 are not prohibited out of competition.
