        @salosong I wouldn't play the racism card tho...rules are rules. You can't use banned substance to get an advantage.

        @olu_sakin so are we saying there are no other athletes at #Glasgow2014 that have won medals and have banned substances in their systems

        @salosong very likely, yes. However, the selection is done randomly. Tough luck for any athlete caught :(
