In various sports events, doping and performance-enhancing drugs have always been practices that athletes avoid and are strictly prohibited. Performance-enhancing drugs have almost been inseparable from modern Olympic sports. This is because athletes, after taking these drugs, experience an increase in adrenaline, resulting in superhuman explosive power. However, it also poses life-threatening risks. Despite these dangers, for the sake of so-called honor and prestige, the use of performance-enhancing drugs continues to persist.
In the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, the first case of doping emerged. The athlete banned from competition was Okagbare, a female sprinter from Nigeria. Okagbare qualified for the semi-finals in the women's 100 meters in the athletics competition with a first-place finish in the preliminaries. However, news of her disqualification due to a failed drug test surfaced just before the competition.
Since 1961, regulations on doping have been incorporated into various sports events and strictly prohibited, with adherence and enforcement. Once an athlete is found to have taken performance-enhancing drugs or banned substances, it can be said that their career is ruined. Therefore, before making any decisions, we must think carefully and not let ourselves be blinded by temporary fame and fortune. There are various opinions about this incident; some say she was framed, considering she is a veteran, while others argue that it was her last competition and she resorted to doping for a chance to win. Regardless of the truth, failing a drug test raises significant issues! |
