The amazing Alina Kabaeva in one of her peak years, 2001 🔥🔥🔥 This performance is from the 2001 World Championships in Madrid. Kabaeva and her teammate, Irina Tchachina were stripped of their medals after they failed doping control at the Goodwill Games, their sample containing furosemide. Furosemide is a diuretic which causes no performance-enhancing but it cleans off traces of other substances, hence it is on the doping list. (-> RexintoMoxo's upload) | Rhythmic Gymnastics
