In the Olympic Pool, Contempt for Drug Cheats Rises to the Surface; New York Times, 8/9/16
Christopher Clarey and Karen Crouse, New York Times; In the Olympic Pool, Contempt for Drug Cheats Rises to the Surface:
"Where once there was polite, if sometimes awkward, silence, there is now direct confrontation.

Remember, nearly 100 positives have now been found at the Beijing and London Games.”... “They don’t belong in a sport,” Camille Lacourt, a star French swimmer, said Monday night in comments reported by the French newspaper L’Équipe. “They should make up their federation of dopers and have fun among themselves. It disgusts me to see people who’ve cheated standing on podiums. Sun Yang, in the 200 free, he pees purple.”"
