Last Updated 30 August 2012, 10:14 IST

Lance Armstrong introduced himself as a seven-time Tour de France champion at a cancer conference.

"My name is Lance Armstrong. I am a cancer survivor," he said to open his speech to the World Cancer Congress yesterday. "I'm a father of five. And yes, I won the Tour de France seven times."

Armstrong announced last week he would no longer challenge the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency's drug charges against him. USADA threw out his competitive victories dating to 1998, which would include all seven Tour wins.
