15. Ilya Ilyin
Kazakh weightlifter Ilya Ilyin, once celebrated for his Olympic achievements, faced a significant setback when he was stripped of his two Olympic gold medals. Retests of samples from the 2008 Beijing and 2012 London Games revealed the presence of banned substances, including stanozolol and turinabol. This revelation not only tarnished his personal legacy but also ignited broader discussions on the prevalence of doping in sports and the integrity of athletic competitions (espn.com).
