Significant changes occurred in some types of sports after the USADA published its dossier on the famous cyclist Lance Armstrong. The legendary American cyclist was administering anabolic steroids and other related products throughout the entire cycling career but he never tested positive for any prohibited medication. He utilized several efficient methods to prevent detection. Nonetheless, finally he was found guilty of doping.
Lance Armstrong’s doping case has displayed that anti-doping policies failed. So, they must be altered. Otherwise, competitions will be unfair. We’ll never distinguish real sports heroes.
These factors influenced not only on cycling but also on other sports. Certain sports organizations stated that anti-doping policies should be changed in order to catch those that apply steroids and/or other related drugs.
Not only anti-doping agencies but also athletes affirm that anti-doping policies must be modified. Some sportspersons want to be sure that their sport is clean. For example, certain tennis players affirm that more drug testing should be conducted in tennis. It is necessary to note that such tennis stars, as Novak Djokovic, Roger Federer and Andy Murray, think that anti-doping program is not quite proper in tennis. They claim that more drug testing is required in order to be sure that tennis is free of doping.
The World №1 tennis player Novak Djokovic claimed that he would submit to more drug testing in order to induce cleaning tennis of dopers.
The World №2 tennis player Roger Federer also confirmed that more tests for banned drugs should take place in tennis. He noted that earlier he was subjected to more tests. Then the number of tests became more reduced in tennis.
As for the World №3 tennis player Andy Muray, he claimed that more out-of-competition testing should take place. While tennis players are always subjected to drug testing during competitions, they are not tested frequently while being not in competitions.
