    Which Russian cross country skier lost her gold medal after testing positive in a drug test during the 2002 Winter Olympics?

    Question #60682. Asked by khanhvan. (Nov 23 05 12:39 PM)

    		Olga Danilova. She wasn't stripped of the gold until December 2003, when Canada's Beckie Scott was rightfully awarded it. Scott had originally won the bronze but had been moved up to the silver after another Russian, Larissa Lazutina, was also disqualified for using a performance-enhancing substance. So Scott at various times held the bronze, silver and gold medals for a single event. I don't know if this is unprecedented in the Olympics.
