BEIJING — The IOC has stripped the medals from Marion Jones' U.S. relay teammates at the 2000 Olympics because of her doping history.

The International Olympic Committee executive board has disqualified the athletes who won gold in the 1,600-meter relay and bronze in the 400-meter relay in Sydney.

IOC legal adviser Francois Carrard says the U.S. Olympic Committee has been ordered to return the medals.

Today's decision follows the admission by Jones last year that she was doping at the time of the Sydney Games.

The IOC had previously stripped Jones of her five Sydney medals. She won gold in the 100 meters, 200 and 1,600 relay. She won bronze in the long jump and 400 relay.

Jones' relay teammates have so far refused to give up their medals, saying it's unfair to punish them for Jones' violations.

The IOC has put off any decision on reallocating the medals.
