The International Olympic Committee has asked the International Gymnastics Federation to investigate claims that Chinese double gold medallist He Kexin is younger than the eligible age to compete in the Games.
He, registered at the Beijing Olympics as 16, won team gold and a gold on the asymmetric bars.
She's registered as having been born on Janurary 1st, 1992
Gymnasts must turn 16 in the year of the Games to be allowed to compete.
He's age has been under scrutiny since the start of the Games and various media have reported she had competed in past events under a different birthdate.
A US computer expert said in emails to the media that he'd uncovered Chinese state documents that proved He was born in 1994 and not 1992.
