[ France gold medalist apologized to the Chinese team, but there was a bizarre accident in the drug test: the staff could not find him]
According to the newspaper The Team, France swimming star Marchand missed an early morning doping test at the Olympics. At 5:45 a.m. on July 29, anti-doping inspectors arrived at the Olympic Village to test Marchand, but were unable to locate him.
Marchand was not in the Olympic Village at the time, as he had received permission from the France Swimming Association to live outside the Olympic Village in order to have better rest conditions before the 200m breaststroke and 200m butterfly events.
Because Marchand and his team had updated their whereabouts records, the inspectors were unable to find him, which was a staff error.
Marchand won gold medals in the men's 400m medley, 200m butterfly, 200m breaststroke and 200m individual medley, setting three Olympic records.
In addition, Marchand apologized to a coach of the Chinese swimming team for an act during the competition. After a match, Marchand reportedly didn't notice a Chinese coach reaching out to shake his hand, which led to a misunderstanding.
Marchand said: "I was completely immersed in the emotions of the game and didn't notice that anyone wanted to shake hands. I would like to express my sincerest apologies to that coach. ”
The apology reflects Marchand's professionalism and respect for his competitors.
