Doping allegations

Doping allegations involve accusations that athletes use banned substances or methods to enhance their performance unfairly. These substances can include steroids, hormones, or other drugs that improve strength, endurance, or recovery. Regulatory bodies like the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) conduct drug tests to detect such substances. When an athlete is caught doping, it undermines fair competition, violates rules, and can lead to sanctions like disqualification, stripping medals, or bans. The goal is to ensure all athletes compete on an equal footing, maintaining integrity and fairness in sports.
