Doping Allegations

The World Anti-Doping Agency has pledged to investigate allegations that ski jumpers are injecting their penises with hyaluronic acid to gain an aerodynamic edge ahead of the Milan-Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics. The bizarre claims, first reported in January by German newspaper Bild, suggest the injections temporarily enlarge genitalia to allow for looser suits that act like sails. No athletes have been named, but officials expressed willingness to examine if the practice violates anti-doping rules.
