He wouldn't. And doping expert Werner Franke said that one of the main side effects of clenbuterol are involuntary muscle spasms, which is pretty much suicidal in a reflex based sport like ping pong. Looks like for once the meat contamination story is true.

Reportedly the guy's case was helped by the fact that others in the same environment also tested positive. Don't know who these others were, though.

I think it's highly probable it will be mentioned and used as an example.

It's also probable that WADA and others will appeal the decision. It violates the World Anti-Doping Code.
