Name: Ngan Thuong Best result: gold in the beam to the South East Asian Games 2007
Accused of : take doping
What?
Well, ok, not really doping. Indeed, even doping. Ngan Thuong, gymnastics talent Vietnamese arrived Beijing thanks to the wild card for his achievements in South East Asian Games. She came to the preliminary and 59th AA at Vaulting 15. In the afternoon the day of the AA, she requested a urine sample for doping control, performed on gymnasts at random, and tested positive for furosemide, a diuretic active ingredient banned. At the hearing, claimed to have taken the diuretic to look leaner and dry and not to improve their performance. He said he had bought in a pharmacy without a prescription in Hanoi, after the greatest athletes in Vietnam had told her that needed to lose weight. Whether true or not, a doctor present at the hearing said that this substance may also be used to mask other substances.
Penalty: Ngan Thuong was expelled from the Games.
Rating: High
For me it is a bad thing. Someone said that probably no one has talked about performance-enhancing drugs, but it seems to me that all this goes further. I would have informed his coaches and, even if they really had not taken to have an improved performance, should not have taken even to lose weight. I am also skeptical that she has been to buy or deciding to buy his own free will.
