Greek media were surprised to recieve the news that twice olympic triple jump medalist Hrysopiyi Devetzi (35, in the mean-time semi-retired but was still thinking about London 2012) was banned for two years.

The ban ends on December 8, 2012 and that means she will not be able to compete at the Games next year. She failed to submit a doping control on May 23, 2009 in an out of competition test while at training camp in Ukraine. Media were not aware in Greece that since 2009 such a case exists because Devetzi was not competing since then and was openly thinking about ending her career The 2009 was the last year she competed. Her national records are outdoors 15.32 (2004) and indoors 15.00 (2008).
