    The Greek Swimming Federation have been ordered to pay 277,000 euros to 100m freestyle swimmer Tonia Machaira for wrongfully excluding her from the Athens 2004 Olympics on the grounds she had failed a drugs test. WADA confirmed that she had not failed the anti-doping test, as suspected by the Greek federation, she filed a suit for one million euros eight years ago, and now she got just over one-fourth of the amount she requested. “The bitterness remains the same,” Machaira told NovaSport FM radio.
