The US cyclist originally awarded the medal, Tyler Hamilton, surrendered it last week and has admitted to doping, reports Bloomberg. Hamilton also is making headlines by accusing former Tour de France teammate Lance Armstrong of doping as well. Armstrong, who previously had been accused by teammate Floyd Landis, continues to deny the allegations. If he's proven to be a liar, it's more than just a matter of handing in old trophies, notes the New York Times. Under a case now being investigated by a federal grand jury, he could face charges of fraud, money laundering, corruption, and drug trafficking.
