Sweden knew Canada's Marc Kennedy was a notorious cheater.
So they set up a camera at the 'hog line' to record it.
And caught him doing it at the Olympics.
The point still stands. The 'gotcha' picture doesn't show he's touching the rock, his finger could be behind. And it's all fuzzy anyway. And more importantly, he got the official win regardless. Olympic athletes are always pushing the boundaries of the rules to get the edge - it's part of the tradition.
