@@LoC28C proven? What is your evidence? Purple faces vs positive drug tests, nobody knows who is cheating. It makes no sence to speculate who is on juice and who not. Innocent till proven guilty counts for the Chinese swimmers just like it countes for the US swimmers and anyone else.
British a drug lord dealer selling drugs, cheat, and lies around the world cannot admit their lost. Prejudiced attitude that contentious to the West that defeated by China.
The Olympic testing committee (Consist of all US, Australia, the UK, and EU testers) be like "Let's test these guy 10 times every day around the clock, from 5 am to 2 am the next day. That should disturb their sleep and daily schedule and give *our doped up* swimmers (US, Australia, the UK, and the EU) a much needed advantage." You went through so much work just to lose to a team of natural swimmers.
This happened multiple times now and it hurts so much. The US, Australia, the UK, and EU view themselves as the best swimmers. They would literally do anything to be on top. Including: doping, using all sorts of enhancements, having less strict regulation in testing each other, cheating, disturbing other's and putting others at a disadvantage. Still can't win.
EXCEPT they were proven to have those prohibited substance, last APRIL, but the Chinese officials kept quiet and said it was only due to kitchen contamination. Then nobody investigated after.

@@teogeorge2203 Competitors anger is understandable. Chinese swimmers should be serving bans not competing in the Paris Olympics. Chinese swimmers had tested positive for TMZ, a performance-enhancing heart drug. Nothing was made public at the time.

If one cannot bear losing to the Chinese swimmers 😂, the British or American or Australian swimmers should withdraw from the Olympics and go home. Those swimmers really lack sporting spirits. No class at all just accusing the Chinese of doping. Shame, shame shame
The Brits, Americans and Australians will put maximum pressure on the IOC not to allow China to take part in the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles, just to enhance their opportunities in winning more medals. It's quite simple. The US government will not issue any entry visa to Chinese sporting contingent. And I bet the US president will endorse it.
Lets not forget the Australian female swimmer who was tested positive for doping in Tokyo, not cleared by WADA and banned for two years and but quietly allowed to compete in Paris Olympics. In fact She won 2 gold medals. What will SCMP, the British, American swimmers, M Phelps, US and Australia say about that? Just keep quiet? Why the Anglo Saxon media chose not to report on this? Will they call her a drug cheat?
Shayna jack served her full suspension, and was then cleared by the WADA..... so she did her time. You cannot participate if suspended or banned..... do you wumau just make S**t up? They did call her a cheat go look at the Media reports when it happened....... hey you know we got free press they savage everyone get used to it

Sir Elton John in one of his songs had lyrics that said, “but loosing everything is like the Sun ☀️ going down on me “…
I'm from Thailand. My opinion for all Chinese swimmers (female and male) are excellent. The others cannot do their job but blamed Chinese. The Olympic has gone too far and it's not mention only sport but racist, political and hateful. This game is one every 4 years.
US, Australia and UK what do you expect it's in their blood to be racist. they always bring politics wherever they go if it benefits them. Those troublemaker countries should be kick out and let all the peaceful ones play.
On se reverra à Los Angeles 2028😂😂😂amoureux des jeux olympiques modernes créés par la France. Il s'agit d'une personne qui accuse les nageurs chinois et non le reste du monde😊
I am absolutely appalled at this. Chinese swimmers are tested 7 times while all others are tested 5 times. These claims are from before the Tokyo Olympics. Shame on these sportsmen, especially Phelps who cheated Cavic. How about the two US swimmers who made illegal turns. Nothing happened about that. Stop moaning and do your best!
PEDs are effective during training not at the games. They were tested positive during training before the 21 games. They should not have been competing then and should not be competing now. Allowing them to compete puts the credibility of all the athletes into question. I feel sorry for those athletes that are clean on the Chinese team that did not test positive in 21.
Chinese swimming scandal: a strong defence by world anti-doping body, but narrative of ‘cover-up’ remains Published: April 24, 2024 Given an investigation by the Chinese Ministry of Public Security found traces of the banned substance trimetazidine (TMZ) in a kitchen at the swimmers’ hotel, CHINADA ruled the positive tests were the result of accidental contamination. The Chinese swimmers were cleared without any public announcement. WADA says China’s national anti-doping agency kept them abreast of events throughout their extensive investigation, which took place during strict COVID lockdowns and was impacted by a local outbreak of the virus. Far from accepting CHINADA’s findings on the face of it, WADA requested the entire case file so it could conduct its own scientific and legal investigations - including speaking with the drug manufacturer to get the latest unpublished science on TMZ, and comparing the Chinese positive tests with TMZ cases in other countries, including the US. WADA ultimately determined there was no concrete evidence to “disprove” the possibility of environmental contamination. Here are a few reasons WADA gave as to why in its press conference this week: More than 200 swimmers competing in the Chinese National Championships were staying in at least two different hotels at the time. The swimmers who tested positive to non-performance-enhancing amounts of TMZ were all at one hotel. There were fluctuating negative and positive results for the swimmers that were tested on multiple occasions, which were not consistent with deliberate doping techniques, including microdosing. WADA found no evidence of misconduct or manipulation in the case file handed over by CHINADA. WADA says it reviews between 2,000 and 3,000 cases of suspected doping every year. It is not unusual for the body to file an appeal challenging anti-doping findings. For example, WADA challenged an Australian Football League decision to clear 34 members of the Essendon Football Club. It also appealed a decision by the world swimming body, FINA, to clear high-profile Chinese swimmer Sun Yang of wrongdoing for his conduct during a 2018 drug test. According to WADA’s general counsel, Ross Wenzel, the difference between these cases and the more recent allegations against the Chinese swimmers was that the body accepted the “no fault” finding in the latter case. In the earlier cases, it did not. He also said WADA received external legal advice that it would have had less than a 1% chance of winning an appeal in the TMZ case. According to WADA, everything was handled by the book, and if the body was faced with the same situation again, it would do nothing differently. Has China been unfairly singled out? So, has WADA succeeded in changing the narrative? Probably not. Why? Because putting the words “China” and “doping” together is a lightning rod in the current political climate given the intense rivalry between China and the US. Currently there are 23 people serving anti-doping suspensions in Australia. Do we feel personal or national shame for their wrongdoing? Every time the US team marches into an Olympic Games, or steps up onto a World Championships medal podium, do we point at them while recalling memories of the US Postal Service cycling team and the banned-for-life cyclist Lance Armstrong? But when it comes to China, many observers are quick to name and shame athletes, viewing every news story as some kind of proof the country must have a systemic, state-sanctioned doping program.

China can play that game too. They also told the swimmers from the U.S UK Eu and Australia to go get tested cause their faces were red after the swim which weren't happening to any other swimmers.
The problem is that the Chinese Olympians are tested up to 7 times more as compared to the other Olympians in this years Olympics and they come out clean. How do you explain this then ?
The world WADA said US swimmers did not comply with WADA regulations as they did not have enough doping tests prior to the Olympics. Yet China over tested too many times.
@@gliu1431 WADA is based in Canada, sponsored by US, hence it cannot stick to its rules and regulations as stipulated. It does not want to bite the hands that feed it. Bogey organization actually headed by Westerners for manipulation of sports and the results.

"Huan" more fake Gold medal. CHINA cheating. Maybe if they didn't make it so obvious. No one beats someone by that much in elite Olympic competition in swimming. Heart medication to help pump more blood to the heart. CHEATERS!
How do you define cheating. On one side, the swimmers were tested many times a day and found nothing in the sample. On the other hand, the swimmers need not do anti doping test due to their “asthma” - majority have that🤔 and their face turning purple after the race (not happening in others). Any clear mind here?
SCMP, why haven't you mentioned in your reporting that the Chinese swimming team got tested THE MOST for this Paris Olympics?! Credit where credit is due.
It's a pity that under the influence of the United States, political struggles have penetrated into every corner, including art and sports. There is no exception.
The intelligence agencies of non-Western countries around the world should investigate and uncover the secret of the changes in the faces of American athletes!
When you lose in a fair competition, get jealous and accusation without merit. The Chinese team has been tested for doping multiple times, even to disturb their sleep! Before competition. The authorities should be impartial to the US, UK, EU and Australian competitors, do the same what you did to the Chinese team. What is the meaning of OLYMPIC?

I think this comparison tells everything. and all report shows there were a full cooperation from the Chinese side becasue they had nothing to hide. yet US decided to release through the New York Times the 'old' news just because Paris Olympics. and the news of the US doping case was taken off the website shortly. I think everybody sees what is happening.
Unfortunately, under the leadership of the United States, Western countries have been hostile to China for many years. There is no fairness at all.

I wish the reporter would fact check his remarks rather than just spout them. From Beijing - London - Rio, Michael Phelps has never lived in Olympic Village, he's always lived in a hotel. While competing, Michael Phelps adamantly opposed blood passports, considered the gold standard in drug testing, but immediately changed his stance when he retired and now advocates for blood passports and even one-and-done bans on athletes who test positive. According to the metric he is pushing, he himself would be banned from swimming as he has tested positive, and refused blood passports. Additionally, multiple swimmers during his era including László Cseh, Chad Le Clos, and Milorad Čavić have went on record as accusing Phelps of doping and being covered by the US collusion with international drug authorities.
AMERICANS IS THE MOST DRUGGED COUNTRY IN THE WORLD INCLUDING DRUGGING INFANTS TO GET THEM FROM STOP CRYING AND PUTTING THEM TO SLEEP AT NIGHTS!!! SO THEIR MA AND PAPA CAN PRODUCE MORE CRYING DOPING INFANTS FOR EXPERIMENTS!!!!!!
Had the British swimmer lost to to a White swimmer from USA, Germany, France, Italy, Poland, Dutch, N Zealand, or Australia, there would be no accusation of doping or cheating. But alas, they lost to a yellow man, a Chinese. What are they going to do when a Black swimmer wins the gold?
British racist ….Chinese swimmers were tested 3 x more than any other country during these Olympics according to Pau Gasol, Olympic official (also former basketball star). Chinese swimmers said they we tested everyday and it impacted their routine as they had to get tested at 6.00 am…this is ridiculous, if China is tested then US, Australians and UK swimmers should also be tested at the same time to level the playing field!!!
US track athlete Erriyon Knighton was detected positive in doping test in Paris Olympic. but got exemption because he claimed that he ate tainted beef. Dare Adam to challenge US over this matter?
Chinese athletes were widely reported by Western media because they ate contaminated hamburgers and had very, very, very small amounts of residual positive test results. If you look at the data over the past few years, you will find that Chinese athletes have always been tested the most, with the number of samples far exceeding that of the United States. However, the percentage of positive tests in China is much lower than that in the United States. However, based on the propaganda of Western media, people actually have the illusion that Chinese athletes are doping. Note that there are still many Western athletes who are exempted from testing, and of course many who are doping and testing positive are still allowed to compete. If you search, you will be shocked by these data.
Except the one who did this exact thing was Pan LOL! I have defeated the bullying Foriegners. It's also distasteful. All parties have poor sportsmanship
Jealousy. China swimmers have been subject to more anti-doping tests than other swimmers. Shame to the British swimmer. He accuses Chinese swimmers of cheating just because he lost in the competition. He should be the one kicked out of Olympics for defaming other athletes with no proof whatsoever.
If the Chinese is really doping, you think that the westerner can let them escape, those swimmers who lost to the Chinese should admit their loses gracefully instead of playing the blame game,at least the public have more respect for you.
Hes calling this out because he is clean, its a fact 23 Chinese swimmers had muscle enhancing steroids in their system and the CHINADA decided it was burgers lol....... If this is the case don't eat Chinese foods they are unsafe
Come on South China Morning Post. Do better and be more objective. Pan Zhanle won fair and square despite being tested multiple times compared to other swimmers, having his routine disrupted, and racist mind games from the other swimmers. Why wasn't that mentioned. What he has achieved is impressive and he should be celebrated on this channel for his incredible performance. Very disappointed in this biased reporting.
No. They want to get China out of Olympics. But China teams are so clean, so, they have no way but let them to play. And when China teams won, they call them cheaters. That's the attitude of Westerners and their racism.
They were caught with banned substances in their system in 21. They should not have competed then and should not be competing now. The notion of eating a hamburger and getting steroids in your system is ridiculous. This is for all athletes not just the Chinese. It is a shame because there are athletes on the Chinese team that were not found with the drugs in their system in 21 but the association of being in an organization which not only closes an eye to cheating but is willing to facilitate brings their credibility into question. This is a shame. WADA should have done the right thing and released the report publicly in 21 and banned them so we will not be having this conversation today. Everyone can then appreciate the great performances of the Chinese athletes this year without a cloud of speculation. The international olympic committee and WADA are to blame here.
@@tsbm9 and returned positive test, took two and half months to report it to wada and a total of six months from the test to find the alleged contaminated food.

Disclosure will show that western nations have many doping incidents, so it doesn't want to disclose. Those living in glass house should not throw rocks.
Biles for one, 60% of the American team gets to cheat, because they are allowed to use drugs as "theupeutic use exemption". I am sure Phelps also cheated.

My guy. China cheats all the time. There is plenty of proff. They cheated last time but were allowed to compete anyway. The Olympics is trying to stop the CIA from investing how much cheating happened and how many were allowed anyway.
Loves these colonial propaganda channels throwing as much dirt at the Chinese as possible so people wouldn't notice how their athletes keep turning purple. 😂
Channels like scmp never cast suspicion on western swimmers or speak of their past guilty records of doping. They always focus on casting doubts on China because their countries are being overtaken by china in so many ways.
@@yuehanslam1593 Yea the irony is the UK was made great by stealing from other countries especially Chinese technology 👇 Why was China erased from Western memory? Article by 龙信明 Introduction Joseph Needham was an English medical doctor and biologist, teaching in England in the 1930s. By an accident of fate he acquired some Chinese students, and was intrigued to hear their claims of so many medical and scientific discoveries having originated in China, rather than in the West. Needham became fully fluent in Chinese, and eventually moved to China in 1942 to investigate these claims and to research the entire history of Chinese invention. That work led to an astonishing voyage of historical discovery. Needham originally planned to write a book cataloguing Chinese inventions, but his first volume barely scratched the surface of his subject. He slowly gatherred many of his students into this enterprise, and they eventually wrote a collection of 26 books, to catalog the history of Chinese discovery. Myth and Misrepresentation It leaves one speechless to learn the vast extent of things invented by the Chinese many hundreds of years, and often several millennia, before they appeared in the West.

Maybe if the British, Australians, and Americans don't spend 80% of their time trying to find their right "pronouns" and studying "woke" and train....... they just may win against a team that was 100% dedicated to their swimming?

get rid of the medical exemptions (TUE) and have WADA oversight over all athletes including the U.S., and lets see how many U.S. swimmers can actually qualify for swimming.
It is disappointing that some Westerners fairness and righteousness have deteriorated to such an extend. We should make allegations and judgement based on evidence and not rumours and speculation.
Didn't Phelps also failed drug tests but was given waivers because he said has some kind of asthma and ADHD? You might think that the waivers were legitimate but the same waivers were not given to other countries aside from Australia and France.
Chinese athletes received an average of 21 tests, some received more than 40 tests, while in the United States and Australia, some had 0 tests, and most had 4-6 tests. It is ridiculous that Chinese athletes are accused of taking doping just because they perform well. It is typical racism.
If that was what the British swimmer wanted, then he had his wishes made. And the Chinese swimmers still won medals for their countries, drug-free. No competing Chinese athletes have cheated. On average, the Chinese swimming teams, both female and male, have been subjected to doping tests 4-5x more than their western counterparts, and none has returned positive since January 2024. The same can be said about the 23 affected female swimmers of having negative drug tests before, during and after the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, except of course the tiny traces of TMZ in a single set of tests during which they were confined to lockdown protocol during Covid. Of course. The Chinese anti-doping agency, the World Aquatic, IOC/Olympics and WADA (world anti-doping agency) have cleared their names through official independent investigations, in which the mild positive tests were consistent with food contamination plus a) TMZ traces were also found in the hotel; b) no member of another swimming team living in a different hotel was found positive in drug tests.
Real champion will not blame other people of cheating when they loose! The Chinese have been tested more than all other athletes and were clean! Man up and shut up!
World also wants doping tests for Anglosaxon swimmers. WADA already said 27 swimmers from Anglosaxon states has failed drug tests and world saw it they turned purple after finish while Chinese, Arabs, dark dont
The U.S. swim team is regulated by USADA, not WADA. USADA has allowed some athletes to compete despite previous positive tests, and others are granted exemptions to take medications for conditions like asthma. This is why some athletes appear flushed or purple-faced after competitions. Meanwhile, the U.S. media often remains silent on these issues while frequently criticizing Chinese swimmers.
US don’t care about credibility anymore as they just want to demonise China at all costs. They got support from western media which makes it easy to spread misinformation about China. One day US and western media (also some western government) will get repercussion.
How do you explain other tournaments they competed in but show now sign of purple faces? Some of these swimmers with purple faces have no asthma. One is even a Asian American. So race and skin colour are out of the question.
The name is petty Peaty. Jealous , inadequate, weak.. .and just needing to blame someone on the opposing team for therapy as the tattoos didn't do what they were meant to do. Who cares.

This is why the Western media are demonizing China, because these politicians do not want their citizens to see how well the Chinese government is doing, and they also do not want everyone to see the strength of Chinese athletes. Therefore, the US has listed China as a place as dangerous as those countries at war, warning Americans not to go to China, and also trying so hard to create various problems for Chinese athletes at the Olympics. Go and find out, Chinese athletes have been tested 4-5 times more than athletes from many other countries. Chinese athletes even found that their personal belongings have been tampered after the game. There were also various deliberate collisions with Chinese athletes. Chinese athletes were sent to the training area instead of the competition area before the game. The athletes' equipment was damaged accidently by western journalists. You can see countless negative information. Would you believe that all of this is a coincidence?
Very poor show from the British swimmer. As a Brit myself I'm disappointed but not surprised. Pan Zhanle is an amazing swimmer, won the gold, broke the world record and made his family and his country proud.
That British swimmer should be banned for being a sore loser and unsportsmanlike conduct. What is his evidence.?
his evidence is a failed doping test by qin a few YEARS ago.
There is none...
@@vladimiremerichsmejkal5525 Even the CADA and WADA said they tested positive. But just because you tested positive doesn't mean you doped. I yust explained what peatys evidence was

He's been taking it for so long that he totally forgot about it!
British a drug lord dealer selling drugs, cheat, and lies around the world cannot admit their lost. Prejudiced attitude that contentious to the West that defeated by China.
The Olympic testing committee (Consist of all US, Australia, the UK, and EU testers) be like "Let's test these guy 10 times every day around the clock, from 5 am to 2 am the next day. That should disturb their sleep and daily schedule and give *our doped up* swimmers (US, Australia, the UK, and the EU) a much needed advantage."
You went through so much work just to lose to a team of natural swimmers.
This happened multiple times now and it hurts so much. The US, Australia, the UK, and EU view themselves as the best swimmers. They would literally do anything to be on top. Including: doping, using all sorts of enhancements, having less strict regulation in testing each other, cheating, disturbing other's and putting others at a disadvantage. Still can't win.
EXCEPT they were proven to have those prohibited substance, last APRIL,
but the Chinese officials kept quiet and said it was only due to kitchen contamination.
Then nobody investigated after.

And create a new competition venue, call it the G7 Olympics.
The Brits, Americans and Australians will put maximum pressure on the IOC not to allow China to take part in the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles, just to enhance their opportunities in winning more medals. It's quite simple. The US government will not issue any entry visa to Chinese sporting contingent. And I bet the US president will endorse it.

Lets not forget the Australian female swimmer who was tested positive for doping in Tokyo, not cleared by WADA and banned for two years and but quietly allowed to compete in Paris Olympics.

Shame on these sportsmen, especially Phelps who cheated Cavic. How about the two US swimmers who made illegal turns. Nothing happened about that. Stop moaning and do your best!
Winner is winner; loser
yeah, just like some guy named "Armstrong" was tested 300+ times and passed every one. He must be legit too! ;)
Sun Yang was tested 8 times. 😁😁
PEDs are effective during training not at the games. They were tested positive during training before the 21 games. They should not have been competing then and should not be competing now. Allowing them to compete puts the credibility of all the athletes into question. I feel sorry for those athletes that are clean on the Chinese team that did not test positive in 21.
Chinese swimming scandal: a strong defence by world anti-doping body, but narrative of ‘cover-up’ remains
Published: April 24, 2024
Given an investigation by the Chinese Ministry of Public Security found traces of the banned substance trimetazidine (TMZ) in a kitchen at the swimmers’ hotel, CHINADA ruled the positive tests were the result of accidental contamination. The Chinese swimmers were cleared without any public announcement.
WADA says China’s national anti-doping agency kept them abreast of events throughout their extensive investigation, which took place during strict COVID lockdowns and was impacted by a local outbreak of the virus.
Far from accepting CHINADA’s findings on the face of it, WADA requested the entire case file so it could conduct its own scientific and legal investigations - including speaking with the drug manufacturer to get the latest unpublished science on TMZ, and comparing the Chinese positive tests with TMZ cases in other countries, including the US. WADA ultimately determined there was no concrete evidence to “disprove” the possibility of environmental contamination.
Here are a few reasons WADA gave as to why in its press conference this week:
More than 200 swimmers competing in the Chinese National Championships were staying in at least two different hotels at the time. The swimmers who tested positive to non-performance-enhancing amounts of TMZ were all at one hotel.
There were fluctuating negative and positive results for the swimmers that were tested on multiple occasions, which were not consistent with deliberate doping techniques, including microdosing.
WADA found no evidence of misconduct or manipulation in the case file handed over by CHINADA.
WADA says it reviews between 2,000 and 3,000 cases of suspected doping every year. It is not unusual for the body to file an appeal challenging anti-doping findings.
For example, WADA challenged an Australian Football League decision to clear 34 members of the Essendon Football Club. It also appealed a decision by the world swimming body, FINA, to clear high-profile Chinese swimmer Sun Yang of wrongdoing for his conduct during a 2018 drug test.
According to WADA’s general counsel, Ross Wenzel, the difference between these cases and the more recent allegations against the Chinese swimmers was that the body accepted the “no fault” finding in the latter case. In the earlier cases, it did not.
He also said WADA received external legal advice that it would have had less than a 1% chance of winning an appeal in the TMZ case. According to WADA, everything was handled by the book, and if the body was faced with the same situation again, it would do nothing differently.
Has China been unfairly singled out?
So, has WADA succeeded in changing the narrative? Probably not.
Why? Because putting the words “China” and “doping” together is a lightning rod in the current political climate given the intense rivalry between China and the US.
Currently there are 23 people serving anti-doping suspensions in Australia. Do we feel personal or national shame for their wrongdoing?
Every time the US team marches into an Olympic Games, or steps up onto a World Championships medal podium, do we point at them while recalling memories of the US Postal Service cycling team and the banned-for-life cyclist Lance Armstrong?
But when it comes to China, many observers are quick to name and shame athletes, viewing every news story as some kind of proof the country must have a systemic, state-sanctioned doping program.

"There were hundreds of people getting off," he said. "Everyone was treated the same."
Lewis has now acknowledged that he failed three tests during the 1988 US Olympic trials, which under international rules at the time should have prevented him from competing in the Seoul games two months later.

I wish the reporter would fact check his remarks rather than just spout them. From Beijing - London - Rio, Michael Phelps has never lived in Olympic Village, he's always lived in a hotel. While competing, Michael Phelps adamantly opposed blood passports, considered the gold standard in drug testing, but immediately changed his stance when he retired and now advocates for blood passports and even one-and-done bans on athletes who test positive. According to the metric he is pushing, he himself would be banned from swimming as he has tested positive, and refused blood passports. Additionally, multiple swimmers during his era including László Cseh, Chad Le Clos, and Milorad Čavić have went on record as accusing Phelps of doping and being covered by the US collusion with international drug authorities.
Agreed. Phelps was accused of doping, with USA pressure, he was never tested.

Lies. That is what China did. They said they ate a bad burger. Why do you feel no shame in lying?
Chinese athletes were widely reported by Western media because they ate contaminated hamburgers and had very, very, very small amounts of residual positive test results. If you look at the data over the past few years, you will find that Chinese athletes have always been tested the most, with the number of samples far exceeding that of the United States. However, the percentage of positive tests in China is much lower than that in the United States. However, based on the propaganda of Western media, people actually have the illusion that Chinese athletes are doping. Note that there are still many Western athletes who are exempted from testing, and of course many who are doping and testing positive are still allowed to compete. If you search, you will be shocked by these data.

Racist ..as a professional athlete, one needs to always be respectful to others.
Jealousy. China swimmers have been subject to more anti-doping tests than other swimmers. Shame to the British swimmer. He accuses Chinese swimmers of cheating just because he lost in the competition. He should be the one kicked out of Olympics for defaming other athletes with no proof whatsoever.
If the Chinese is really doping, you think that the westerner can let them escape, those swimmers who lost to the Chinese should admit their loses gracefully instead of playing the blame game,at least the public have more respect for you.
And also, if they are, why would they report the cases when the incident doesn’t even matter to any international competition? Why not just hide it?
This british swimmer won his gold with doping,that is why he thinks that only person who is doping can do better than him.
A thief will always call other one...
Hes calling this out because he is clean, its a fact 23 Chinese swimmers had muscle enhancing steroids in their system and the CHINADA decided it was burgers lol....... If this is the case don't eat Chinese foods they are unsafe

Come on South China Morning Post. Do better and be more objective. Pan Zhanle won fair and square despite being tested multiple times compared to other swimmers, having his routine disrupted, and racist mind games from the other swimmers. Why wasn't that mentioned. What he has achieved is impressive and he should be celebrated on this channel for his incredible performance. Very disappointed in this biased reporting.
Those who are accusing the Chinese should be banned themselves. Disgrace
The western IOC/WADA test these Chinese swimmer more than dozens of times and these western swimmers still don't tfust the system.
No. They want to get China out of Olympics. But China teams are so clean, so, they have no way but let them to play. And when China teams won, they call them cheaters. That's the attitude of Westerners and their racism.
They were caught with banned substances in their system in 21. They should not have competed then and should not be competing now. The notion of eating a hamburger and getting steroids in your system is ridiculous. This is for all athletes not just the Chinese. It is a shame because there are athletes on the Chinese team that were not found with the drugs in their system in 21 but the association of being in an organization which not only closes an eye to cheating but is willing to facilitate brings their credibility into question. This is a shame. WADA should have done the right thing and released the report publicly in 21 and banned them so we will not be having this conversation today. Everyone can then appreciate the great performances of the Chinese athletes this year without a cloud of speculation. The international olympic committee and WADA are to blame here.
no. that's a lie. wada did not test the ccp swimmers, wada's rule is that each nation tests it own swimmers. so the ccp tested its own swimmers.
@@tsbm9 and returned positive test, took two and half months to report it to wada and a total of six months from the test to find the alleged contaminated food. It’s quite a ridiculous series of events. I think if you do random testing on the average individual you will not find steroid substances within their system that they have not ingested knowingly. Somehow this seems to be an epidemic among professional athletes.
@@tsbm9Chinese athletes got more tested in this Olympics than any other nations. The west is,trying really hard to interrupted their sleep in order to win . Did you know Pan got tested at 2am on the day of swimming event . No matter what , he is the Goat for the next 10 years .
If all the tests are negative, there should be no more accusations, OK.
IF ALL TEST ARE NEGATIVE - THEY WILL FIND OTHER EXCUSES - OTHER COUNTRIES MUST BE ALIENS!!!!!!
Olympics should also disclose who has exemption for drug testing this is transparency
all pan, all gold, all right now!
Disclosure will show that western nations have many doping incidents, so it doesn't want to disclose. Those living in glass house should not throw rocks.
The Oylmpics should be CANCELED WORLD WIDE TO AVOID ALL OF THIS RACIST ACCUSATION
Biles for one, 60% of the American team gets to cheat, because they are allowed to use drugs as "theupeutic use exemption".
I am sure Phelps also cheated.
USA, Aussie, Britain and EU would not allow the publication.
I'm Indian and supports Chinese swimmers. No excuses, he is just wesk . Chinese dedication and hard works r on anthr level
If he's tested negative in all banned substance in all of their doping testing procedures then there's no reason to condemned the chinese swimmer and please stop the baseless accusations

Meanwhile the west just send men to compete in women’s events. Really dope !!😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉😂😂😂
Yeah? We’ll provide the names of those men competing among women then.
There is a saying, guilty people always accuse other people of being guilty. No need to say anymoree. Be fair, test everyone equally. Each chinese swimmer was tested 21 times, every swimmer should be tested 21 times.
Other nations did not have nearly half of their team test positive for a banned substance 3 years ago.
60% of hundreds of American athletes applying for medical exemption have been granted, for China it was 9%
😮
Losers always say the winners are cheating. Losers never have proofs !
They are the western lousy losers. Only they can be winners, Chinese winners not allowed!
Only racist sore losers
My guy. China cheats all the time. There is plenty of proff. They cheated last time but were allowed to compete anyway. The Olympics is trying to stop the CIA from investing how much cheating happened and how many were allowed anyway.
Racist
COMPLETE RACIST!!!!!!
Loves these colonial propaganda channels throwing as much dirt at the Chinese as possible so people wouldn't notice how their athletes keep turning purple. 😂
Channels like scmp never cast suspicion on western swimmers or speak of their past guilty records of doping. They always focus on casting doubts on China because their countries are being overtaken by china in so many ways.

who would take the Brits seriously these days? the people who voted for their own Brexit demise.

Why was China erased from Western memory?
Article by 龙信明
Introduction Joseph Needham was an English medical doctor and biologist, teaching in England in the 1930s. By an accident of fate he acquired some Chinese students, and was intrigued to hear their claims of so many medical and scientific discoveries having originated in China, rather than in the West.
Needham became fully fluent in Chinese, and eventually moved to China in 1942 to investigate these claims and to research the entire history of Chinese invention.
That work led to an astonishing voyage of historical discovery. Needham originally planned to write a book cataloguing Chinese inventions, but his first volume barely scratched the surface of his subject.
He slowly gatherred many of his students into this enterprise, and they eventually wrote a collection of 26 books, to catalog the history of Chinese discovery.
Myth and Misrepresentation It leaves one speechless to learn the vast extent of things invented by the Chinese many hundreds of years, and often several millennia, before they appeared in the West.

Positive for racism.
Maybe if the British, Australians, and Americans don't spend 80% of their time trying to find their right "pronouns" and studying "woke" and train....... they just may win against a team that was 100% dedicated to their swimming?
US swimmers were not doping, they were ambarrassed. 😂

Bad sportsmanship from Australia,UK & USA . Clearly can't give praise when due unless when they are only winners.
Sportmanship is the Golden Rule of Sports: You should always treat others how you wish to be treated.
get rid of the medical exemptions (TUE) and have WADA oversight over all athletes including the U.S., and lets see how many U.S. swimmers can actually qualify for swimming.
Or all asthma patients compete in different games to be fair
Just because he is a 3x gold medalist, he should be a gold medalist everytime. Not someone else.
If Phelps was tested as many times as the Chinese, he wouldn't win any medals at all.

It is disappointing that some Westerners fairness and righteousness have deteriorated to such an extend. We should make allegations and judgement based on evidence and not rumours and speculation.
Didn't Phelps also failed drug tests but was given waivers because he said has some kind of asthma and ADHD? You might think that the waivers were legitimate but the same waivers were not given to other countries aside from Australia and France.
The strange thing is that his asthma got better after retiring. It turned out that the problem was in the American swimming pool.ha ha
@@sam-th6suand Chinese in sewage oil pool ha ha ha
Chinese athletes received an average of 21 tests, some received more than 40 tests, while in the United States and Australia, some had 0 tests, and most had 4-6 tests. It is ridiculous that Chinese athletes are accused of taking doping just because they perform well. It is typical racism.
@@ButterflyG673why are people so butthurt about a Chinese swimmer smashing records? Can't accept it?
@@ButterflyG673 that's seine river 😂😂😂
If that was what the British swimmer wanted, then he had his wishes made. And the Chinese swimmers still won medals for their countries, drug-free.
No competing Chinese athletes have cheated. On average, the Chinese swimming teams, both female and male, have been subjected to doping tests 4-5x more than their western counterparts, and none has returned positive since January 2024. The same can be said about the 23 affected female swimmers of having negative drug tests before, during and after the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, except of course the tiny traces of TMZ in a single set of tests during which they were confined to lockdown protocol during Covid. Of course. The Chinese anti-doping agency, the World Aquatic, IOC/Olympics and WADA (world anti-doping agency) have cleared their names through official independent investigations, in which the mild positive tests were consistent with food contamination plus a) TMZ traces were also found in the hotel; b) no member of another swimming team living in a different hotel was found positive in drug tests.
Real champion will not blame other people of cheating when they loose! The Chinese have been tested more than all other athletes and were clean! Man up and shut up!
Excuse me, who is cheating?? Where is your evidence? Mind your words, losers.
Warm welcome to our American Asthma team
It’s a hard disease I feel and I’ll pray for them 🙏🤧😔😟
ITS SHOULD BE WARM WELCOME THE MOST DRUGGED AMERICAN TEAMS!!!!
This guy is insulting the British accent and he said nothing about Team USA's purple face.
The British swimmer should “Wake up (earlier)” and work harder.
Well, the reporter seems to forget that on Paris Olympics the Chinese swimmers are tested again, again, and again.
World also wants doping tests for Anglosaxon swimmers. WADA already said 27 swimmers from Anglosaxon states has failed drug tests and world saw it they turned purple after finish while Chinese, Arabs, dark dont
The only white people who didn't turn purple are out of the Olympics now (Russia and Belarus).
Only Chinese people see them as purple because Chinese media are editing the colours to artificially make them look purple.
The U.S. swim team is regulated by USADA, not WADA. USADA has allowed some athletes to compete despite previous positive tests, and others are granted exemptions to take medications for conditions like asthma. This is why some athletes appear flushed or purple-faced after competitions. Meanwhile, the U.S. media often remains silent on these issues while frequently criticizing Chinese swimmers.
US don’t care about credibility anymore as they just want to demonise China at all costs. They got support from western media which makes it easy to spread misinformation about China. One day US and western media (also some western government) will get repercussion.
If wada can not ensure fair plays, Olympics should be terminated...
How do you explain other tournaments they competed in but show now sign of purple faces? Some of these swimmers with purple faces have no asthma. One is even a Asian American. So race and skin colour are out of the question.
According to Micheal Phelps, his USA team should be banned from ever swimming again. LIFETIME!😂
The name is petty Peaty. Jealous , inadequate, weak.. .and just needing to blame someone on the opposing team for therapy as the tattoos didn't do what they were meant to do. Who cares.

Why do scmp gives times and space for these sore losers ??
'amid doping allegations' and who are making the allegations? Our 'honest' Western media once again, plus the losing swimmers with (literally) purple faces.
Unfortunately, under the leadership of the United States, Western countries have been hostile to China for many years. There is no fairness at all. Chinese culture is peace and harmony, and they try not to have conflicts. They believe that as long as they do well, facts speak louder than words. However, this does not work at all in the world order dominated by the West.
Chinese athletes received an average of 21 tests, some received more than 40 tests, while in the United States and Australia, some had 0 tests, and most had 4-6 tests. It is ridiculous that Chinese athletes are accused of taking doping just because they perform well. It is typical racism. Obama also said at the time that the earth could not accept that all Chinese people had enough food. Look at the Chinese people now living a high-quality life. People who have been to China will be surprised at the high-quality and low-priced things in their supermarkets. The variety of vegetables and fruits alone is amazing. There is also very convenient, easy access and cheap public transportation. High-speed trains with a speed of more than 300 kilometers per hour are affordable for everyone. Government workers will respond to any of your complaints within 24 hours. All kinds of conveniences and safety. This is why the Western media are demonizing China, because these politicians do not want their citizens to see how well the Chinese government is doing, and they also do not want everyone to see the strength of Chinese athletes. Therefore, the US has listed China as a place as dangerous as those countries at war, warning Americans not to go to China, and also trying so hard to create various problems for Chinese athletes at the Olympics. Go and find out, Chinese athletes have been tested 4-5 times more than athletes from many other countries. Chinese athletes even found that their personal belongings have been tampered after the game. There were also various deliberate collisions with Chinese athletes. Chinese athletes were sent to the training area instead of the competition area before the game. The athletes' equipment was damaged accidently by western journalists. You can see countless negative information. Would you believe that all of this is a coincidence?
Very poor show from the British swimmer. As a Brit myself I'm disappointed but not surprised. Pan Zhanle is an amazing swimmer, won the gold, broke the world record and made his family and his country proud.
