Plus Nike (or any other sponsor) would probably pay enough money under the table for those #5 & #6 relay hopefuls so they don't file a case and block Richardson's place in the relay. Most things in USA usually come down to money in the end. Not sure they would. In the UK Jess Varnish got direct funding from UK Cycling - in the USA athletes are not paid by the governing bodies , Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t remember what he said about podium protests and the controversy regarding Sun Yang in 2019 and Effimova and Herasimenia in 2016. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rybak 2,694 Posted July 30, 2021 #75 Share Posted July 30, 2021 @Sindo @hckošice Could you move last two pages from this thread to doping and bans thread? It's not disscussion about swimming anymore in that case... Topicmaster1010 and pdr4332 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
