World Anti-Doping Agency responds to penis injection claims at the Winter Olympics
World Anti-Doping Agency investigates claims that ski jumpers used hyaluronic acid injections to increase penis girth, potentially enhancing suit aerodynamics and jump distance by up to 9 feet.
- A German tabloid claimed some male ski jumpers may be injecting hyaluronic acid into their genital area to artificially increase body measurements used during 3D suit fittings, potentially gaining a competitive edge.
- The report suggested the enlarged measurements could result in slightly larger ski jumping suits, which can improve aerodynamics and help athletes fly farther.
- World Anti-Doping Agency officials said they were unaware of any evidence supporting the claim and noted that such actions would only be investigated if they were deemed doping-related.
- While WADA leaders downplayed the issue, one official joked about looking into it, as ski jumping experts confirmed that even small increases in suit size can meaningfully affect performance.
