Armstrong is no longer seven-time champion

Lance Armstrong, who has just been robbed of seven Tours, has changed its official Twitter profile. The U.S. has removed the phrase "seven-time Tour de France" and now simply says: "Raising my 5 children battling cancer. Swimming, biking, running and playing golf whenever I can."


Just been slow to respond to the American news ICU. Without knowing whether Armstrong will appeal the decision to CAS, it seems that right now is no longer considered the winner of seven editions of the prestigious gala round.
 

There has been no official reaction from the Texan and his profile on twitter seems the only clue for how Armstrong has taken the press conference of Pat McQuaid. Before the UCI gave reason to report USADA, Armstrong's self-description was: "A father of five incredible seven times Tour de France winner, full time fighter against cancer, part-time triathlete" .
 

Now, after confirming the lifetime ban and the cancellation of his victories, has been as follows: "Raising my 5 children battling cancer. Swimming, biking, running and playing golf whenever I can."
