(BEIJING, November 2) -- International Olympic Committee President Jacques Rogge has confirmed that former Olympic champion, famous sprinter Marion Jones, would face further action by the IOC after IAAF's treatment upon her.
After years of denying she had ever used performance-enhancing drugs, Jones admitted in court that she'd taken the designer steroid known as "the clear" from September 2000 to July 2001.
After her confession, the U.S. Olympic Committee stripped her of the five medals she earned at the Sydney Olympic Games in 2000.
President Rogge said these medals were delivered to the IOC on Tuesday and that the IOC would move on further measures based on the IAAF decision.
The IOC and International Association of Athletics Federations said Tuesday they would move forward with their procedures for disqualifying Jones and revising the results from the Olympics and world championships.
Her 100 meter gold medal will possibly transfer to the first runner-up, Greek Kostas Kenteris, who also failed to show up for drug tests on the eve of the games and later was suspended for two years.
Rogge said IOC would discuss the Jones case at the IOC Exclusive Meeting at the end of the year.
