The first doping case at the “China Asians” strips a champion of the silver medal

Today, Thursday, Turkmenistan’s Tegin Tegenov became the first medal-winning athlete at the Asian Games in Hangzhou to fail a doping test and be temporarily suspended, organizers announced.
Tegenov won a silver medal in the 90 kg weight in the sport of kurash (an ancient form of wrestling in Uzbekistan that dates back, according to some historians, thousands of years). The World Doping Committee revealed that he had taken banned substances.
