Nothing except further proving that regular sports already is the "enhanced games"Has anything funny happened yet
haven't been keeping up with this at all but at least one non-roided athlete beat (presumably) roided competitorsHas anything funny happened yet
article, archiveLAS VEGAS — A former Cal swimmer won the first swimming event at the Enhanced Games without taking any performance-enhancing drugs that the competition allowed — and was immediately tested for drugs following his races.
Hunter Armstrong, a two-time Olympic gold medalist and former member of Cal's postgraduate training group, finished first in the 50-meter backstroke on Sunday against three other swimmers: Sohib Khaled (Egypt), Shane Ryan (Ireland) and Antoni Ivanov (Bulgaria). He reached the end of the pool with a time of 24.21, which was a half-second shy of his personal best 23.71, the former world record, and also shy of the 23.55 current world record.
Kerley did a good job of taunting his juiced-up competitors afterwards saying, “Man, they need to do better than that. They need to work a little bit harder, get on that shit a little bit more.”
And the suspension is from missing mandatory routine drug tests.Swimmer Hunter Armstrong, who unlike Kerley is not serving an anti-doping suspension, competed in two events and won $375,000. He has openly said he is competing because he needs the money to continue in the sport and wants to compete in LA 2028. Many had felt World Aquatics had banned athletes who competed at the Enhanced Games, but there may be more leeway than thought, and Armstrong was drug tested by USADA after his swim on Sunday night, indicating he may still be on a path to compete in LA in 2028.
Shame, but pretty much expected. Not only are the "Clean" athletes still legally juiced, but the Juiced athletes are limited to has-beens and people okay with burning down their future in the sport for a chance for a one time cash reward.
