Chinese Olympiad Ages
« on: August 14, 2008, 11:39:38 AM »
I'm a bit amazed at some of the athletes whom look so incredibly young.  Surely, I'd question if some were more than 13 years of age... but... I suppose it could be possible that they're 16.

Still, articles like this surely stir the pot http://sports.espn.go.com/oly/summer08/gymnastics/news/story?id=3534544

Either the Chinese government helped forge their ages or the girls were purposefully malnourished to stunt their growth.  Don't expect any Olympic committee investigation to get very far, though.
