After spending years being haunted by allegations of doping, seven time Tour de France champion Lance Armstrong has been banned for life from cycling. He has also had all seven of his Tour de France titles stripped away from him by USADA, the anti-doping agency for the sport of cycling.
Armstrong released a statement recently, stating that he will no longer fight the charges that have been filed against him.
“There comes a point in every man’s life when he has to say, enough is enough,” Armstrong’s statement read. “For me, that time is now.”
Travis Tygart, USADA’s chief executive, announced that Armstrong is banned from the sport for life and that the titles are going to be taken away from him.
