World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) Vice President Yang Yang has taken a bold stance against the controversial Enhanced Games, calling the proposed event a "dangerous gamble with athletes' lives." In an exclusive interview with CGTN Sports Scene, China's first Winter Olympics gold medalist warned that allowing performance-enhancing drugs at the event could normalize risks that "no medal is worth."
Why the Enhanced Games Spark Outrage
Yang highlighted tragic cases of athletes who died after using banned substances, arguing the games would send a "disastrous message" to young sports enthusiasts. "This isn’t just about rules—it’s about protecting lives and the spirit of fair play," she said, channeling the same determination that earned her historic wins at Salt Lake City 2002 ❄️🏆.
A Champion’s Stand
The Olympic legend praised organizations joining WADA’s resistance, stressing: "We owe it to the next generation to show that success comes from hard work, not shortcuts." Her comments come as debate rages over ethics in sports—a conversation hitting closer to home for Gen Z fans obsessed with fitness culture 💪🧪.
While the Enhanced Games pitches itself as a "progressive" alternative, Yang’s message cuts through the noise: "True athleticism celebrates human potential, not pharmaceutical experiments." Mic drop 🎤⬇️.
