MELBOURNE: Sun Yang's coach Denis Cotterell on Thursday defended the Chinese Olympic champion from doping accusations and labelled criticism from the Australian team's swimmers as"hypocritical".at the 200m freestyle medal ceremony days after Australian Mack Horton refused to share a podium with him after the 400m.
"I have been on teams where people have failed a drug test, accidentally and through no fault of their own. I would never call them cheats. It seems to be very hypocritical." The latest case involves an aborted out-of-competition test last year in which Sun was alleged to have refused to cooperate with testers and ended up having a blood sample destroyed with a hammer.
