Olympic Scandals and Controversies: The Olympics have faced numerous scandals. The 1980 and 1984 boycotts, doping scandals like Ben Johnson’s 1988 disqualification, and the Russian doping controversy tarnished the Games. Corruption allegations within the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and bid rigging, as seen in Salt Lake City 2002, further damaged credibility. Controversial decisions, such as biased judging in boxing and gymnastics, spark debates. These issues highlight the ongoing challenges in maintaining fair play and integrity. Efforts to address these problems include stricter regulations, increased transparency, and enhanced anti-doping measures.
