Lance Armstrong challenged the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency to name names and say what it had on him.
On Wednesday, it did.
The anti-doping body revealed a group of 11 former Armstrong teammates - some loyal, some estranged - who each provided evidence of drug use on the U.S. Postal Service team. USADA Chief Executive Travis Tygart called it ''the most sophisticated, professionalized and successful doping program that sport has ever seen.''
USADA will deliver its reasoned decision against Armstrong later Wednesday, a summary of the facts it used to hand him a lifetime suspension and erase his titles. The organization has banned the seven-time Tour de France winner from competition for life and declared his victories null and void.
