HEADLINE: Rusadadeniescoverup of positive dopingtestsby Russianswimmers
ABSTRACT:
The Russian anti-doping agency said on Thursday it had not covered up positive doping tests
by Russian swimmers, Tass news agency reported.
Swimming’s world body Fina said on Wednesday it was prepared to investigate reports by
the Times newspaper that Russia had undertaken systematic doping in swimming and covered
up test results.
Wada to investigate allegations of systemic doping in Russian swimming
Meanwhile, the double Olympic gold medallist Rebecca Adlington has called for a “full-on
investigation” into claims of widespread doping in Russian and Chinese swimming.
PERSONAL OPINION:
From my point of view I can believe people leave their fame when doping texts tell the
true. They are brilliant athletes I can’t understand the aim of doping in sport.
