"The THG (tetrahydrogestrinone) scandal and the attention focused on Balco, which has advised dozens of top athletes on the use of dietary supplements, has opened the curtain on a seamy side of sport and on the fascinating cat-and-mouse game played between rogue chemists and the laboratory sleuths who try to police them." (NEW YORK TIMES MAGAZINE) This article examines the lengths athletes will go to in order to get a competitive advantage, including using performance-enhancing drugs, and the impact it has on all levels of sport.
