The performance director of Swim Ireland, Jon Rudd, has called for a thorough and independent investigation into the growing controversy over how 23 Chinese swimmers escaped censure even though they tested positive for a banned substance seven months before the Tokyo Olympics.
Dr Rudd, who is also president of the World Swimming Coaches Association, said the affair had “certainly hurt our sport at such a close point to the Paris Olympics”.
