Winning at all costs?

The spirit of the ololympic games has always been clear :The important thing is not winning but taking part.In recent times, however, the desire to win has been taken to extremes.

People still remember the incident in the 1984 Los Angeles Olympic when South african born runner Zola Budd appeared to trip her rival and medal favourite,Mary Deker in the 5000 metres,causing her to fall and lose the race. Nor can the international sporting public forget the shame brought to the olympic ideal by Canadian Ben johnson’s use of steroids in the 100 metre final in the 1988 Tokyo olympics.

Athletics is not the only sporting event in which competitors cheat.Weightlifting,football, boxing and even women’s shotputting have all attracted their fair share of scandal. During the winter Olympics in Lillehammer in 1994, the world of cometitive ice skating was shocked by an incident involving two american figure skaters, Tonya Harding and Nancy Kerrigan, the favourite to win a medal. While training in Detroit nancy was misteriously attacked on the knees by a man with an iron bar. Tonya was accused of conspiring with her ex-husband and her former bodyguard to injure Nancy.

Tonya eventually confessed to her involvement in the crime and has since seen her skating career destroyed.Although she escaped a prison sentence, she has paid a high price for her part in the scandal.

She was fined $ 100000 and given 500 hours of community service.She was also made to resign from the US Figure Skating Association. However,she has already earned $600000 by giving an exclusive television interview and has been offered two million dollars to move to Tokyo to become a wrestler.

For Tonya Harding, fame and fortune are finally been achieved but at what cost?
