Nadzeya Ostapchuk, the Olympic shot putt gold medal winner, has been stripped of her title after failing a doping test, the International Olympic Committee has confirmed.
The Belarus athlete tested positive for anabolic agent metenolone during in-competition testing on August 5 and 6 and has been disqualified from the final results.
The gold medal is instead awarded to Valerie Adams of New Zealand, with Russia's Evgeniia Kolodko now taking silver and Lijiao Gong of China elevated to bronze.
