Cycling:Lance Armstrong faced yet another media grilling over doping allegations as the seven-times Tour de France champion continued his farewell ride at the Tour Down Under.
Sports Illustratedmagazine published fresh accusations against the 39-year-old yesterday. The American who has been under scrutiny since former team mate Floyd Landis accused him and other prominent figures in the sport of doping last May.
"I have nothing to say," Armstrong told reporters when asked about the article before the start of the second stage.
The media, however, did not back down and continued to quiz the Texan, who has faced several allegations of taking illegal substances throughout his career, although he never tested positive.
"Like I said, I have nothing to say," he said, before admitting he read the report.
"I perused it... there's nothing there," he added.
When asked once again about the report, Armstrong told a reporter: "Dude, are you that stupid? What part of 'I'm not commenting' is not clear to you?"
