Isn't this common in sports? If you're caught intentionally cheating even once your entire career's achievements are invalidated.

  Multiple people have been suspended for doping in tennis, but their past achievements were not impacted.

  No. It's not. In fact I can't think of any major sports that operate in that way. Titles/records are stripped from events where they are proven to be doping/cheating but that's usually it. Athletes are then usually banned for a period afterwards.

    Lance Armstrong comes to mind.

      Armstrong fits the “Titles/records are stripped from events where they are proven to be doping/cheating” pattern not the “acheivements negated for whole career regardless” pattern. It's just that the conclusion of the investigations into the allegations that started early in the major success portion of his career was that he was cheating the whole time of his biggest successes.
