The news of Sun Yang's failure to participate in the Paris Olympics has been on the hot search in the past few days, in fact, this news has been exposed many times a month ago, and if you are interested, you can check my historical article. My basis is the timing of the Olympic Trials of the Chinese Swimming Association and the selection regulations for doping violations. So there's nothing new in the news in the past two days, it's just an afterthought, or a copy of my report.
All the conclusions about Sun Yang's exclusion from the Olympics are based on the timing of the Olympic trials and doping violations, and there has never been an official voice saying that Sun Yang will definitely not be able to participate in the Paris Olympics. The latest report from British journalist Craig Lord points out that Sun Yang is likely to compete in the Paris Olympics.
Lord is known as the No. 1 swimming reporter in Europe and the United States, and he is very famous in the Western world for attacking Sun Yang, he has a close relationship with swimming bigwigs from all over the world, and he can always get first-hand news, and the reports are in-depth and written, so his business ability is much stronger than those reporters in China who can only copy and revise manuscripts. Of course, he has three wrong views and slanders Sun Yang every day, and has become a pawn of Western forces to smear China's swimming. It is true that there is no sense of justice, but his professional ability is really strong.
Lorde's exact words were: "Sun Yang is banned, but he keeps all his medals, and those who are other banned are lonely, and if Sun Yang shows up in good form at the Paris Olympics, people will probably have to tolerate the return of the twice-banned athlete to the Olympics for the fourth time." Note that Lord used the phrase may well, believing that Sun Yang was likely to be present in Paris.
Previously, Lord also mentioned that Sun Yang has a role in promoting the Chinese swimming men's 4x200m freestyle relay, and the author analyzes that even if Sun Yang cannot participate in a single competition, he will have the opportunity to participate in the Olympics as a member of the relay team. Now Sun Yang's status is unknown, and he should not have the strength to win Olympic gold in a single event, otherwise the swimming team will definitely do its best to facilitate his participation. Then, as long as Sun Yang maintains the level of the world's top 10 or even the world's top 20, he can contribute to the relay team.
