Article: Madden leaving USADA

Terry Madden intends to resign as chief executive officer of the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency, and he'll be succeeded by Travis Tygart, the agency's senior managing director and general counsel.

World Anti-Doping Agency director general David Howman said Tuesday night that Madden will leave the Colorado Springs-based USADA because he has "done what he set out to do" since helping start the organization in 2000.

Madden, 55, wants to spend more time with his wife and three children, said Jim Scherr, CEO of the U.S. Olympic Committee. Scherr said the USADA board of directors selected Tygart as Madden's successor.
