    Sources: ANA

    The IOC announced today that it has barred Greek sprinter Katerina Thanou from the Beijing Games, saying her role in a drug-testing cover-up four years ago in Athens was «a scandalous saga» that had brought the Olympic movement into disrepute. Katerina Thanou lawyers, however, had said that she will take legal action against the IOC in the event she was barred from The Beijing Olympic Games.
