So Russian athletes were doping at the 2014 Sochi Olympic winter games. This shouldn’t be a surprise. The extent of the doping? That is a mild surprise. The World Anti-Doping Agency released an extensive report on the doping and … yes, at least one ping pong player was doping. A handball athlete was doping.
This paragraph is all you need to know:
Rodchenkov claimed that up to 15 Russian medal winners at the Sochi Winter Games were part of a program in which tainted urine samples were switched for clean ones.
So now the question becomes whether or not Russia will be banned from the Rio Olympics this summer. [via Guardian]
