remember, the greatest controversy we have seen in terms of doping was enacted at the winter olympics in sochi where the russian state conspired to cheat their way to gold medals, what they did was substitute urine because that was the only way they could beat the tests for the not many countries could do that because that involve huge planning and the involvement of the state police and the former kgb. many of those agents were involved, and that isn't going to happen in many other places, but the reason russia did that is because the anti—doping tests do work and to circumvent them they actually had to substitute urine. they could be far more effective than they are and the doping problem would be either would say significantly less if we put enough money into it. very briefly, with big stars heading off into the sunset like usain bolt, and mo farah, is the sport heading into the doldrums? athletics is losing its audience, no doubt, and losing mo farah and especially usain bolt won't help, but sport survives. golf is used to worry about what would happen when tiger woods went into decline,
