Natalya Antyukh stripped of London 2012 hurdles gold over doping offences

Russia's Natalya Antyukh has officially been stripped of her gold medal from the women's 400m hurdles at the London 2012 Olympics after being implicated in the state-sponsored doping scandal.

The 41-year-old crossed the line in 52.70 seconds to be crowned Olympic champion 10 years ago before she was charged with doping offences in 2020, and she was banned for four years in April 2021.

Antyukh - one of over 1,000 athletes to have benefited from the Russian state-sponsored doping program between 2011 and 2015 - had 45 days to appeal the October decision to disqualify her gold medal from the hurdles race, but that deadline has now passed.

As a result, Antyukh's gold medal has officially been wiped from the results books by the Athletics Integrity Unit, adding to her 4x400m relay silver medal that was rescinded in 2016.

The Russian's disqualification means that the USA's Lashinda Demus - who won silver in the 2012 hurdles - has been promoted to Olympic champion, and all of Russia's three track gold medals from the London games have now been revoked.

The Czech Republic's Zuzjana Hejnova will receive an upgrade to the silver medal, while Kaliese Spencer of Jamaica is set to be bumped up to third place.
