underage

When the International Olympic Committee explained to this newspaper how it was reexamining the controversy surrounding the ages of some Chinese gymnastic medalists, it offered assurance that outside parties would be consulted.

The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has asked the International Gymnastics Federation to investigate the Chinese gymnastics fiasco, following new evidence that at least two gymnasts competed under the legal age in the Olympics.

More evidence has surfaced that gold medal winner He Kexin is underage, but information about the gymnast is fast disappearing from the Internet.

Renowned former U.S. gymnastics coach and NBC commentator Bela Karolyi was upset at what he called China’s arrogance in using underage girls at the Games.
