Which organization created universal anti-doping policies but struggles to keep up with new performance-enhancing drugs?

• A. Therapeutic Use Exemption (TUE)
• B. Astros sign-stealing scandal
• C. CCNY Beavers
• D. World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA)

Answer: (D)

Universal anti-doping policies are set by an organization that coordinates a single, global code used by athletes and sports bodies everywhere. World Anti-Doping Agency was created to harmonize rules, administer testing, and keep the Prohibited List up to date so that athletes face the same standards across countries and sports. It updates the World Anti-Doping Code and the list annually and collaborates with labs and researchers to improve detection. The challenge is staying ahead of new performance‑enhancing drugs, including designer substances and novel methods like gene doping, which can appear faster than tests and policy updates can keep up with. That gap is why it’s described as struggling to keep pace with new PEDs. The other items aren’t organizations responsible for universal anti-doping rules—one is a medical exemption process, another a scandal, and another a college team.
