Former Olympic badminton champion Lee Yong-dae will unlikely compete in the 2014 Incheon Asian Games for violating anti-doping procedures.
 
The Badminton World Federation (BWF) announced on its Web site Tuesday that Lee and compatriot Kim Ki-jung were suspended for a year.
 
The federation said Lee and Kim violated “the requirements relating to filing whereabouts information and resulting missed tests under the BWF Anti-Doping Regulations."
 
The two failed to report their whereabouts in March, September and November last year.
 
The international governing body sanctions players who fail to report whereabouts three times in a period of 18 months.  
 
The Badminton Korea Association held an emergency news conference and said the players failed to report their whereabouts because they were competing at domestic and international events when anti-doping officials visited the National Training Center in Seoul.
 
The association said it will appeal the ruling to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) in Switzerland so Lee and Kim can compete in the Asian Games at home.
