Anti-doping violation and ban

In December 2017, UK Anti-Doping announced[2] that Webster tested positive for a banned substance, Ostarine, in May 2017 and had therefore received a four year ban from involvement in sport, to last until 13 June 2021. Webster says he spent his life savings unsuccessfully trying to overturn the drug ban.[3]
