IAAF investigates letter suggesting Chinese state-sanctioned doping
Wang JunxiaBEIJING (AP) — The IAAF is investigating the authenticity of a two-decade-old letter published in Chinese media that suggests state-sanctioned doping in the 1990s and casts doubt on the longstanding world records set by Wang Junxia in the women’s 3000m and 10,000m.
Wang’s records could be annulled if the former Olympic and world champion has admitted to doping before setting the marks in 1993, the International Association of Athletics Federations said Friday.
