How old is this Chinese gymnast ?
He Kexing is a true gymnastics phenomena.
But, there's a problem, we don't actually know her age.
To participate to the Olympics, the legal age is 16.
Unfortunately, The New-York Times recently unveiled informations that shows He Kexing was born on January, 1st of 1994. So she must be 14.
This great gymnast that already won 2 international competitions and the Chinese championship has integrated the official olympic team a few days ago. And to prove their honesty, the Chinese autorithy has sent to the newspaper a copy of her passport (passport created on February 2008...strange...) that claims she was born in 1992.
At the same time, an archive of the Daily China has been found : a tv report that talks about He Kexing as a "14-year-old new comer". The Daily China now denies this piece of information.
Unfortunately, the IOC won't keep on inquiring on the subject. Could someone tell me why ?
