"For drug cheaters from countries like the United States and Britain, nations with well-funded and relatively efficient antidoping agencies, that means big trouble. Under the new World Anti-Doping Code, which would take effect in 2015, the ban for athletes who intentionally use performance-enhancing drugs will double, jumping to four years from two. That penalty ensures that any athlete whose deliberate doping leads to a positive test will miss an Olympic Games."
