RIO DE JANEIRO: French swimmer Camille Lacourt waded into the Olympic doping controversy on Monday casting doubt on Sun Yang. Lacourt, who came fifth in the 100m backstroke final just after Sun’s triumph, said swimming was becoming like athletics “with two or three doped in each final”. “Sun Yang, he pisses purple,” Lacourt told RMC-sport. “When I see the 200m podium I want to be sick. I prefer to remember the crowd that cheered when we went out.”
