On August 1, local time, in the women's 200-meter butterfly final of the Paris Olympic Games, Chinese athlete Zhang Yufei won the bronze medal with a time of 2:05.09. According to a news release on Weibo by Shanghai TV Five-Star Sports Channel on August 2, at the press conference after the women's 200-meter butterfly race, Zhang Yufei said at the press conference that foreign media reporters questioned Chinese swimmer Pan Zhanle about doping. The domineering reply asked: Why are Chinese athletes swimming so fast that they are questioned, but no one like Phelps or Ledecky dares to question it?

"I believe he (Pan Zhanle) has not been tested for doping yesterday and this week before entering the village. As for whether he has taken drugs, the doping test can give a clear indication. This is not for me to judge. As for him Why he can swim so fast may only be known to his coach and himself," Zhang Yufei said.

"Then why are Chinese athletes being questioned when they swim so fast? Before that, when the great athlete Phelps won 7 gold medals and 8 gold medals, why did no one dare to question him? Ledecky athletes have dominated long distance (competition) for so many years from 2012 to 2024, winning gold medals in every competition, so why doesn’t anyone question Ledecky?” Zhang Yufei said, “I don’t think doping is involved. The incident will have some serious impact on us, because we ourselves are innocent. The whole ins and outs, the World Swimming Federation and all aspects have helped us clarify it clearly and clarified it online. If some people still don't believe it, then we don't have it. There are some arguments that it doesn’t matter what we do, because those who are clean will clean up themselves. "

" As for more urine tests for our Chinese athletes, I think it is something we should cooperate with, because after this incident, no matter what Whether Chinese athletes or foreign athletes, I saw on the Internet that the number of urine tests has increased accordingly, so cooperating with the tests is something that every athlete, not just swimmers, should do. But when it comes to this, everyone When I’m woken up after 5 o’clock in the morning, I might be a little irritable,” Zhang Yufei said.

According to Xinhua News Agency, the World Swimming Federation announced on July 23 the results of their large-scale pre-match doping testing for participants in the Paris Olympics.
