A combo picture made on January 15, 2013 in Paris, shows US talk-show star Oprah Winfrey and US former Cycling champion Lance Armstrong. Lance Armstrong’s reported admission to Oprah Winfrey that he used performance-enhancing drugs likely means he will go down in history as the most brazen drug cheat the sport has ever seen. The disgraced American cyclist’s comments, reported January 14, 2013 by USA Today, rewrite 14 years of deception and repeated denials that he used banned substances to win scores of international races, including the Tour de France seven times. His years of dominance in the sport’s greatest race raised cycling’s profile in the United States to new heights and gave Armstrong a platform to promote cancer awareness and research.
