LONDON (Reuters) - Three-times Tour de France champion Chris Froome has said he rejected a therapeutic use exemption (TUE) to treat his asthma during the 2015 edition of the race on moral grounds.
The Team Sky rider was granted TUEs in May 2013 and April 2014 to treat the condition but chose not to apply for a TUE - which allows athletes to take banned substances on medical grounds - when he was advised to do so during the 2015 Tour.
