Olympic champion Sun back in China’s national team
Print Edition
OLYMPIC swimming champion Sun Yang was reinstated by China yesterday following his suspension last year for a driving infraction.
“The national team welcomes Sun,” Shang Xiutang, deputy head of the Chinese Swimming Administrative Center was quoted as saying by Xinhua news agency. “We always hope he can realize his mistake and come back.” Sun was the first Chinese man to win an Olympic swimming gold medal with victories in the 1,500- and 400-meter freestyle at the 2012 London Games. He was suspended indefinitely from training and competition in November after being detained for seven days for driving without a license. It’s not clear when Sun will return to competition. He also underwent surgery this year for an infection.
