Chinese Gymnasts Underaged?


First it was the lip sync and the pre-recorded opening ceremony. Now, China is facing more controversy when their team of women gymnasts are being accused of being underaged.

Last month, The New York Times reported that according to online records, two of the gymnasts from China's team, He Kexin and Jiang Yuyuan are only 14. However, China was quick to dispute this by providing copies of passports indicating that both athletes in question are 16, the minimum age for Olympic eligibility since 1997.
