Trevor Graham, the controversial coach of sprinter Justin Gatlin, will not be allowed to use US Olympic facilities because of his record of mentoring athletes who have used performance-enhancing drugs.

Graham has denied any knowledge of doping by his athletes, although six of them have served drug suspensions.
