China has been stripped of their gold medal in the women's 4x200m freestyle relay because of a doping violation. Updated podium is,

 

Gold: :USA USA

Silver: :AUS Australia

Bronze: :CAN Canada

What happened to this ? Why was China not stripped of these medals all of a sudden?

The US Olympic Commitee contacted their swimmers to tell them to expect gold medals but it turned out they jumped the gun by a long, long way.

WADA covered it up for the Chinese.

Like i've said previously "Excuses are already lined up for every Chinese medal won in Paris". NBC are having the cue card on speed dile.

I don't get the NBC cue card reference

NBC broadcast the Olympics in America. For NBC, American athletes are of course the best athletes on the planet (especially in swimming, athletics, gymnastics). Anytime some one else beats said athletes there must be some outside reason. No one could objectively be better than Americans. 

 

So in Paris, when China wins a bunch of medals in swimming, because they have a  great generation, NBC will have the graphics and it's analyst pull reports how China are "allegedly doping" and this is why they are winning.

Also has anyone read the report about World aquatics stonewalling the independent review committee on the situation? They are refusing to give the required documents of the 28 athletes to properly review the case for the past three weeks. They are stalling them from finding out the truth. How is this allowed?

    • Thank you! And I wish  win your medals at these Games and continue medal streak! For us even one medal will mark the Games as successfull.  
    • Trump will attack Iran soon , maybe tonight   
    • Yep, that was really unfortunate, but well, such things happens. Anyway this amount of lugers is really impressive.   Congrats and good luck at the Games
    • Yeah, Qualifying a team for the summer olympics is completely out of the question. Not going to happen for a long time. In Sydney 2000 we had 3 teams W Basketball, M Football & M Water Polo, it was already insane and this was even in a totally different era. Nowadays it is just Utopian. We have none to be at a high level in Europe to aspire for a qualification to the Olympics.   W Handball is really the most obvious chance in a long shot. The U17 girls showed last summer that it is possible, who knows maybe in Brisbane if the planets allign well.    Paris 2024 was a nightmare I do not want to remember. The worst games I experienced in my life. point.
    • Khm, do we know the fate of the  license in pairs? I did not see confirmation of their entry.   If they fail  must get full license (team + individual) and one more place for team event will be available, am I correct?
    • Honestly, we did not expect more than 8. 2 additional places happened just becaues your double could not grab it due to the injury(?).
    • Vivat Slovakia    But in all seriousness, it's been repeatedly stated how important it is to qualify in a team event for the next Summer Olympics. However, I have no idea if we even have a realistic chance.   We only have one fewer individual athlete competing this year than we did in Paris, so individual quota spots aren't the main issue. Where can we find a competitive team, like we do in hockey? Maybe the women's handball team could start something big, but that's still far in the future, very likely unachievable in just two years.   And to be clear, as horrific as our medal tally from Paris looked, those were some of the unluckiest Olympics for Slovakia I have ever seen. Finishing in the top six seven times (!) is absolutely insane.
    • Biathlon (6 - 2W; 4M)   Anastasia Tolmacheva Andreea Mezdrea (our media put her in)   George Buta Raul Flore Dmitri Shamaev George Coltea   Bobsleigh (4M + 1 reserve)   Constantin Dinescu George Iordache Mihai Păcioianu Mihai Tentea     Figure Skating (1W)   Julia Sauter - flag bearer       Luge (7 - 3W; 4M)   Corina Buzatoiu Carmen Manolescu Raluca Stramaturaru   Denis Serban Marian Gîtlan Eduard Craciun Valentin Cretu     Ski Jumping (4 - 2W; 2M)   Delia Floea Daniela Haralambie   Daniel Cacina Mihnea Spulber   Alpine skiing (2 - 1W; 1M)   Sofia Moldovan   Alexandru Stefanescu   Nordic skiing (3 - 1W; 2M)   Delia Reit   Paul Pepene Gabriel Cojocaru   Snowboard (2W)   Kata Mandel Henrietta Bartalis   For me it’s a very special edition because two of my friends (Edi Craciun and Gabi Cojocaru) made it. So fingers crossed for them and for the whole delegation.   We don’t expect to much as usual in winter games (1-2 top 10 - luge team, women’s doubles luge, 2man bobsleigh, and maybe Julia Sauter if she will skate clean both programs)
