doping
One doping case was recorded in the shot put competition.
The Belarusian Andrej Michnewitsch , initially tenth, was a multiple offender who, among other things, tested positive for doping at these world championships. which led to the cancellation of his result and a two-year ban. Later he was stripped of further medals and victories because of later proven doping violations, and finally he was given a lifelong ban. He never admitted his violations.
One athlete was particularly disadvantaged here:
The Italian Paolo Dal Soglio could have taken part in the final with his width of 19.80 m, which he achieved in qualifying.
