As a new phenomenon in the Chinese swimming world, Pan Zhanle has once again attracted attention due to the doping suspicion caused by winning the 100-meter gold medal at the Paris Olympics. The argument upset him.

“Humanly impossible”. This was one of the biggest controversies at the time 2024 Paris OlympicsAfter Pan Zhanle crowned the 100-meter freestyle competition on July 31, Australian coach Brett Hawke launched the event. The 19-year-old Chinese swimmer (who celebrated his 20th birthday four days later) then broke his already existing world record with a time of 46.40 seconds, ahead of Australian Kyle Chalmers. Ahead of the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, 11 Chinese swimmers tested positive (and were subsequently cleared), raising concerns…

Brett Hawke was enough to spark the scandal that turned the Chinese camp upside down. “We all want to not be left alone”” After the Ile-de-France Olympics, Pan Zhanle explained in an interview with China Public Channel (CCTV). Brett Hoke’s accusations spread across China, and the young swimmer from Wenzhou was shaken by the media incitement. “Of course, because I am innocent. I took more than 50 drug tests last year and from May to July this year, and they all came back negative.assured Pan Zhanle.

No trace of doping

The new “Flying Fish” continues: “Everything we eat and drink is strictly controlled, rigorously verified, and no doping or stimulants have been used,” concluding: “What you must do (In the face of controversy, editor’s note) First, be yourself and make sure you are innocent. The second thing is to respond to them with your performance.”.

Despite the alarming mid-Olympic inconsistency among Chinese swimmers (largely corroborated by North American and European swimmers), Pan Zhanle went on to win a silver medal in the mixed 4×100 medley relay (ahead of Team USA, who went on to win in record time) and most importantly helped his country win another gold medal in the 4×100 medley relay (ahead of the United States and France). The 20-year-old swimmer then became the first swimmer in history to run sub-46 seconds, breaking the throw time (without wetsuit) record.
