Tyson Gay Case Costs 2012 US Olympic Men's Sprint Relay Team Its Silver Medal

Two officials with knowledge of the decision told the Associated Press, the entire US men’s sprint relay team was stripped of its silver medal from the 2012 London Olympics on Wednesday as a result of Tyson Gay’s doping case. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because the decision has not yet been announced. The officials said, The International Olympic Committee notified the US Olympic Committee by letter that the 4x100 relay team has been disqualified and all the medals withdrawn. The letter asks the USOC to collect the medals and return them to the IOC. Gay returned his own medal last year after accepting a one-year doping suspension and the loss of results going back to July 2012,
