Csaba Burjan, an Olympic short track speed skating relay gold medalist for Hungary, has been banned one year for a social media post.
In early December, an Instagram photo on Burjan’s account showed a line of people at a Chinese airport with an expletive, according to Hungarian and Chinese reports. The photo was later taken down and an apology posted, according to reports.
Burjan detailed the situation in a Q&A with Hungary’s Nemzeti Sport in December.
Burjan. 25, will miss the rest of the season, including March’s world championships in Seoul.
