Hamilton decision expected Monday

The long awaited decision on the Tyler Hamilton blood doping case should be known Monday, according to sources within the UCI. 'The verdict is expected to be announced on Monday,' confirmed a senior UCI official to Cyclingnews this weekend.

While the official said he had no idea which way the verdict would go, there is some speculation within US cycling that Hamilton will not only be cleared, but that he could even line out at the Tour of Georgia starting next Tuesday.
