RIO DE JANEIRO -- New 1,500-meter Olympic champion Faith Kipyegon sat at a podium not long after winning her first major title -- when she beat the world-record holder in the process -- and watched reporters fire questions about doping at the woman on her right.A hard introduction for the 22-year-old Kenyan and former junior champion, perhaps, but welcome to track and field in 2016.Sitting to the right of her, Genzebe Dibaba of Ethiopia, the reigning world champion and record holder, promised reporters she was crystal clean, a commitment she was asked to make after her coach was arrested in Spain and held for three days in June on suspicion of supplying banned substances.The coach, Jama Aden, was released but remains under investigation and cannot leave Spain. Suspicion has moved over to athletes under his control.The rumors roaming around the world are deeply affecting me, said Dibaba, who won silver behind Kipyegon. I have communication with Jama. Its solely, purely and solely, training and execution and competition. And this (the rumors) adversely affected my performance, my psychology. Im completely and crystal clean from doping.Suspicion is reasonable in this middle-distance event after six of the top eight finishers in the 2012 Olympic final in London -- including gold medalist Asli Alptekin and silver medalist Gamze Bulut -- either were disqualified or are facing allegations of using performance-enhancing substances. Some were caught years later.What will be said and written about this race in years to come?Dibaba had been tested four, five, six times in the buildup to the Rio de Janeiro Olympics, she said, speaking through an interpreter.As for Aden, Dibaba said he is only under investigation and she had received no further information on his case from Spanish police. She would stand by her coach if he was cleared.Kipyegon, aware her country is under heavy scrutiny amid doping allegations, said she and Kenya were going by doping control rules.And Jennifer Simpson, the first American woman to win an Olympic medal in the event, was asked how she would react if her coach, or part of her close team, was investigated for doping.To me, personally, its important who I surround myself with in my life, Simpson said. And who I surround myself with are people Im proud to be affiliated with. And thats important for anyone. Who you are connected to says something.Cheap Baseball Jerseys China .com) - The red-hot Los Angeles Kings will try to extend their winning streak to a season-high seven games when they visit the Edmonton Oilers for Sundays clash at Rexall Place.

Nike Baseball Jerseys China . -- Mike Smith never saw his first NHL goal go in.Dale Steyn underwent a successful shoulder surgery on Thursday in Cape Town to repair the fracture he suffered during the first Test against Australia in Perth, Cricket South Africa said in a release. The fast bowler will have to undergo a six-month rehabilitation before gradually returning to bowling.Steyn suffered the injury on the second day in Perth and told Channel Nine that he felt a thud in his shoulder and a lot of pain while bowling. He had bowled only 12.4 overs in the match, and had dismissed David Warner before walking off the field.I felt this pop or like a thud in my shoulder. There was a lot of pain, Steyn said. I had to go off the field and have an MRI. I did something very similar against England in December in a similar area but it wasnt as bad. That was a stress reaction, which is like a very hairline little crack. This time its more like a fracture. Its kind of broken the whole bone.Dr Mohammed Moosajee, South Africas team manager, said Steyn would begin his rehabilitation programme after a few weeks, once the bone had healed.Dale had successful surgery on Thursday where the fracture in the right shoulder blade was fixated with the placement of a screw, Moosajee was quoted as saying in a press release. We expect a minimum six-month rehabilitation period before he can start any form of bowling. It is crucial to give the injury enough time to heal and to make sure tthat he is completely pain-free before he starts bowling again.dddddddddddd. He will begin with his rehabilitation programme once the satisfactory bony healing has taken place; this is expected to be in a few weeks.We are positive that he will make a successful return to international cricket. He will be provided with the best possible support and guidance led by our physiotherapist, Brandon Jackson, and Cricket South Africas medical committee, which will give him the best opportunity to make a successful return to full fitness.Steyn had suffered a similar injury late last year, and broke down during the Boxing Day Test against England. He was subsequently ruled out of the remaining matches of that series.Steyn made a comeback from that injury at the World T20 in March, featuring in two of South Africas four matches. He was then left out of the Caribbean triangular series in June - officially rested but unofficially dropped - and was allowed to play in the NatWest T20 Blast to regain form. He returned for South Africas Tests against New Zealand and seemed back to his best with eight wickets in the Centurion win. He also played in four of the five ODIs against Australia and was occasionally seen holding the shoulder but did not need treatment at any stage. ' ' '
