Philippine Olympic Committee (POC) president Bambol Tolentino insisted that Gilas Pilipinas will keep the gold medal it won in the recent Asian Games despite Justin Brownlee’s positive doping test result.

Despite the result of the doping test, Brownlee, who came from an injury prior to the Asiad, could request the analysis of the B-samples.
