The Russian athlete, convicted of doping, Tatyana Beloborodova (Lysenko) refused to take the gold medal of the Olympic Games in London and the bronze medal of the 2005 World Cup. It is reported by Sport-Express.
"Of course, we are not going to return any medal. Firstly, Tanya already said that we will sue, that is, the matter is not completed. Secondly, she finished his career and in any case will not act anymore," said the athlete’s husband and coach Nikolai Beloborodov. “Our country is reproached with a report, they say that we have a system of doping, so if we have a system, why with the system, why with the system. For all this time, no one contacted, no help with lawyers and protection has proposed for us?
Beloborodova won the competition in London with the Olympic Record. She threw a hammer for 78.18 meters. Subsequently, a prohibited drug Turinabol was discovered in her sample. In early October, the International Olympic Committee after the test of trial annulled the results of Beloborodova.
The second place in London was taken by the Polish athlete Anita Vlodarchik. Now the Polish athlete will receive gold, the German Betty Heidler is silver, and the Chinese woman Zhang Wenzu is bronze.
Olympic medals of London were lost by two more Russian athletes - the pusher of the nucleus of Yevgeny Kolodko and the weightlifting of Apty Auhadov. Both in 2012 took second places.
IOC also canceled the results of eight Russian prize -winners of the 2008 Olympic Games . Russia lost the bronze medal of Ekaterina Volkova in 3000 meters with obstacles, bronze of jumping in the heights of Anna Chicherova, gold in the relay of 4x100 m (due to positive doping tests of Julia Cherksoskaya), silver in spear throwing (Maria Abakumova), silver in the relay 4x400 m (due to Tatyana Firova and Anastasia Kapachinskaya), bronze in the relay of 4x400 meters (due to Denis Alekseev), as well as silver and bronze in heavy athletics (Marina Shainova in weight up to 58 kg and Nadezhda Evstyukhina up to 75 kg, respectively).
