Olympic gymnastics rules mandate that competitors must be at least 16 years old. Severe doubts surrounded the true age of many members of the gold-medal-winning female Chinese gymnastics team in 2008. Here is a photo of the Chinese team and the American team on the podium. Call me cynical and suspicious, but the adolescent American girls look way older than their Chinese rivals.
