LANCE ARMSTRONG
Lance Armstrong was a hero.
Between 1999 and 2005, the American won seven successive Tour de France titles and could do no wrong.
Off the track, he was an inspirational cancer-survivor and philanthropist. But many had their suspicions.
They were right.
In June 2012, Armstrong was charged by USADA for with doping and drug trafficking.
He would contest the charges but continued to maintain his innocence despite being stripped of all seven of his Tour de France wins.
