The International Olympic Committee on Wednesday stripped China of a bronze medal in the women's team event at the 2000 Olympic Games after finding one of the team's athletes was underage.
The United States will be awarded the bronze medal instead, the IOC said in a news release.
The International Gymnastics Federation (FIG) in February decided to cancel all results obtained by gymnast Dong Fangxiao at the Sydney, Australia, Games.
"The FIG conducted an inquiry which showed that the athlete was only 14 years old during the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games," the IOC said. Under FIG qualification rules, athletes must be 16 in the year of the Games in order to compete.
USA! USA! USA! Way to go International Olympic Committee! Snatchbox on that BRONZE, China! Give us our shit back, we earned it you good for nothing underage cheater! Why don't you just stick to what you know best oragami, sushi, and chinese checkers. Call me ignorant but, the truth hurts. Go cry about it and then get the fuck over it. We don't fall for your chinese tricks. Really though, why does anybody even care about what happened in the 2000 Sydney olympics anyway? Shit was a decade ago.
