Which is why, the conspiracy theory goes, it’s only second tier athletic disciplines that have a doping problem. In sports where the real money is, such as football and tennis, it pays to sweep results under the rug. Cyclists and distance skiers, on the other hand, seem to go from one scandal to the next.
Unless an athlete shows up that does manage to bring in serious amounts of money. In that case the lid goes on for a few years.
