China had to give up gold in gymnastics because underage kids?

Question

Did anyone ever prove that the chinese girls in gymnastics were underage? if yes, what was the outcome?

Answer 1

hahahahahahahahaha

Answer 2

There was no proof that they were underage,but the entire world knows that china cheated.The IOC just can't proove it !

Answer 3

no NOTHING has been proven... and I find the way you have phrased your question (particularly the PAST tense) somewhat offensive in that it comes across as if you are assuming their guilt....  have you ever heard the phrase innocent until proven guilty...

Answer 4

It came in the newspaper that the gymnast's were 12 or 13 years old .  

Answer 5

I heard it would take over eight year to find out if they were underage. It was found out through some papers that the girls were actually of age.  

Answer 6

Idk

Answer 7

lol even if they were, we couldn;t do anything about it coz we don;t have the authority........

Answer 8

It's none of our business. Let the IOC worry about it.

Answer 9

Though there is speculation that they are underage there isn't enough proof for the IOC to do much.  They've asked the international gymnastics community to do an investigation into it.  And that's about all thats being done last I heard.

I figure the truth eventually always comes out.  The Chinese have used underage gymnasts before and the girl herself came out and said "I was too young to compete legally".  I figure if they did anything terrible we'll find out sooner or later.  It does nothing but tarnish their own reputation if they did.

Answer 10

The chinese produced more "official" forms that showed the kids were of age. Funny how for the past 3 or 4 years these girls had their ages at other competitions wrong huh?!  The way I see it is they lied. They either lied for the last 3 or 4 years and were too old to compete but said they were younger, or they lied for the Olympics and are really too young. But the chinese say it was a simple paperwork error. Uh  huh.....thats why you took down the websites showing their ages at those competitions before huh.  

Answer 11

Nope. It has not been proven yet.
