In response, the Royal Dutch Athletics Federation annulled her unsurpassed national record in discus throw set in that period.

[5] In July 1984, she achieved her all-time best discus throw of 71.22 m in Walnut, CA,[4] a Dutch record that remained on the books until it was annulled in 2016.

[10] She retired shortly after the Olympics to work as a journalist for Algemeen Dagblad, Sport International, and Atletiek Wereld and as an athletics commentator for Eurosport and RTL 4.

[11][12][13] In March 1992, Stalman was accused by her former training partner and former roommate Jennifer Smit of using doping during their time in the United States and of being caught at the border trying to import a large number of Winstrol tablets from Mexico.

[14] In January 2016, Stalman admitted in a TV interview that she had been using anabolic steroids during the last 2.5 years of her career, which includes the period when she won her Olympic gold medal and when she set her national discus throw record.
