Moreover, they are now in Rio
Michael Phelps
His doping offense the most insignificant, but our athletes and not for that “closed”. At the end of the zero one of the “yellow” tabloids in the UK have placed on its pages a famous photograph of the swimmer Smoking marijuana. This crime is more moral than sport, although cannabis is also banned by WADA.
Michael didn’t bother to evade or to deny it, he just apologized and promised not to do that anymore (well, at least in public). The sports Committee of the U.S. punished the swimmer’s three-month suspension, Phelps made it safely to the games in Rio in the national team of the United States.
Tyson Gay
The legendary sportsman, the main rival of the Bolt, unofficially almost second fastest man in the world, with a large list of victories and achievements.
His black “doping” history began on the American championship in 2013, when the corresponding test gave a positive result. Gay then said that this custom “set up” some of its sports environment and helped the proceedings, for which USADA suspended him for only a year from the competition, leaving the silver for the relay race 4*100 at the London Olympics.
Year he, indeed, did not participate in official competitions and tournaments, but then quickly got back in form. And now to Rio again stands in the way of Usain Bolt to gold games.
Elizabeth Bryzgina
Ukrainian athlete, bronze medalist of the Olympics in ‘ 12, was caught for doping in 2013, and her shelter was discovered a strong steroid Grotanol. For this she was suspended for 2 years with no right of appeal against the decision of WADA and 2 years of competitions really missed. In 2015 it is again in the ranks of the Ukrainian track and field team and participates in the games in Rio.
Justin’s Getli
Doping tests this American runner was positive twice as much. And nothing, he is also at the Games in Rio.
First, he lit up in the early noughties, when in 2001 the doping test revealed the presence of amphetamines in his blood. But he also helped the investigation, saying that amphetamines were the drug Adderall from a rare disease, which he treated already at that time for 10 years. USADA knocked off his year of Ineligibility, warning of long-life disqualification if he caught on using doping at least one more time.
But 5 years later, in April 2006, Justin was caught doping again, this time it was elevated levels of testosterone. It was removed from the competition in Kansas city, canceled his record.
But Gatlin was again out “unscathed”, as his trainer, the infamous Trevor Graham, said that the cream content of testosterone rubbed his student sports massage therapist. However, the athlete was not suspended from competition forever, but only for 8 years, which then turned into 4 years of Ineligibility, after which he rapidly re-gained the form and went to Rio in the form of a young, not tridtsatipjatiletnego athlete.
Johan Blake
Another athlete with a black “dope” in the past. At the end of zero he was the youngest runner faster than ten seconds on a hundred-meter race. But in 2009 the trial found a strong steroid methylhexaneamine.
Johan referred to the Supplement that he used, and the packaging of which was not indicated that it contained illegal drugs. He believed and was disqualified only for 3 months, so he is also on the Rio Olympics with hope successfully to compete with his renowned countryman Usain Bolt.
Marin Cilic
This tennis player from Croatia involved in the Games in Rio, although it is also caught for doping in the fall of 2013. Then his blood found stimulant nikethamide, which in light of the persecution of the Russian national team it just had to avoid before the Olympics in Brazil.
Sun Yang
This athlete from China, double Olympic champion, was also convicted of using illegal drug Trimetazidine. But he was not suspended from competition for the Brazilian Olympics, because he pointed out the anti-doping Commission to the fact that the substance was contained in his heart medication.
And we have Elena Isinbaeva in Rio was not allowed. And it is certainly a shame for WADA and the IOC.
