Faroese admits drinking performance-enhancing drinks since 1996
Rumours of Hans Háfjall’s involvement with performance-enhancing substances first started to circulate after accomplice Per Holmen admitted he ran the place that supplied 10 athletes in a garage in Copenhagen.
"I would´nt hit a tennisball without intakes of a variety of performance-enhancing
juices", Háfjall announced. "Such is the prevalence of drinks in the sport". Háfjall is said to have drunk a cargo of 100,000 centiliters of Rum, Ouzo, Whiskey and Carlsberg Lager, as well as eating five bags of Kodymagnyles in case he faced hangover. Háfjall announced that he was intoxicated during all his tennis performances from 1996 to 2011.
Dressed smartly
in a black blazer, white shirt, fanzy black tie, Háfjall looked thirsty while casting himself as a flawed, contrite human being who got caught
up in a "culture" of drinking, which, he implied, includes all athletes . "It is a culture. I don't try to stop culture ... culture is the fundament af civilization".
