GWANGJU, South Korea: Chinese juggernaut Sun Yang suffered another salty snub Tuesday after retaining his 200-metres freestyle world title on a controversial disqualification that sparked howls of protest.
Scott also declined to step up to the top step for official photos, prompting a furious Sun to bark at him"You lose, I win!" as they walked downstairs for their lap of honour. South African Chad le Clos, runner-up to Sun in the 200m free at the Olympics, said:"It's good that people are taking a stand -- I want my gold medal back from Rio and James Guy should get his bronze, because it shouldn't be allowed to have people cheating in sport."
