off his 4x100 Beijing olympics medal after his team mate in in the
relay sprint Nester Carter failed a drug test on the re-analysis of
his Beijing 2008 sample. A Jamaican newspaper revealed that Carter,
the sixth fastest man on the 100m and also a first-leg specialist in
the jamaican team failed a drug test, and a regular when his sample
analysis was looked into.
The 2008 medal will have to be scrapped off if more investigation
should reveal that Carter took the banned substance-methylhexaneamine.
The effect this will have on Bolt is that it will take him back a bit,
in his ambition to match Carl Lewis record of nine olympic gold
medals.
All the same, bolt still remains among the list of six fastest men
to never test positive for banned substance. But the Legend said that
giving back his medal wouldn't be a problem, but he recognises the
effect it will have on his ambitions.
Bolt said: "Its really heartbreaking,especially when you've worked
hard accumulating gold medals and working hard to be a champion...but
these things happen in life. And when it has been confirmed or
whatever, if I have to hand back my medal, I will. That shouldn't be a
problem"
When asked about carter, he said : "I can't imagine what he's going
through, but it really must be frustrating".
