‘It’s impossible:’ Australian coach disputes Chinese swimmer’s record

By an Australian swimming coach and former Olympian Paris Olympics I am the amazing of Chinese player Pin Zanle World record The legality of making swimming has been questioned.

Pin Zhanle beat all rivals in a big race and then edged out two rivals, Australian Kyle Chalmers and American Jack Alexi, as the Chinese won the 100m freestyle by a body length. I got gold medal.

In doing so, the 19-year-old broke his own world record by nearly half a second, set in the men’s 100m freestyle in 1928 by American swimmer and actor John Weissmuller (best known for his role as Tarzan). The biggest difference since the win.

Pin’s win was the first time a world swimming record had been broken at these Games. The relatively shallow depth of the pool in the game has been blamed for the slow pace of the game, but Pin disproved that logic with his impressive performance.

The incident followed the Chinese doping scandal, in which it was revealed that the Chinese anti-doping authority had ignored the failed tests of its top swimmers, accusing it of adulteration in a hotel kitchen, and World Anti-Doping. No action taken.

Pinzhanle was not involved in the scandal, but that did not stop swimming coach Brett Hawke from speculating on the performance, which is not part of the current Australian Olympic set-up.

Hawke posted on Instagram ‘I’m pissed off about this swim. I’m just worried because you don’t win the 100m freestyle by a body length in this arena. You can’t do that. It is not humanly possible to beat this field by a body length difference.

‘I don’t care what you say. It’s not about race, it’s not against any particular person or nation, it’s just what I see and what I know.

‘It’s not real, you can’t win like that in this arena. Kyle Chalmers, David Popovich, Jack Alexi, you can’t beat these guys by a full body length in the 100m freestyle. It’s not humanly possible, okay, so don’t sell it to me, don’t impose it on me. It’s not real.’

Hawke also posted a message that read: ‘If something sounds too good, it probably isn’t.’

However, Chalmers, who won the silver medal, sided with his rival. Chalmers said, “I try my best to win the race and believe that other athletes who are trying to follow the rules of the game like me, they deserve this gold medal.”
