Swimming has a serious doping problem. At least that is the conviction of Kyle Chalmers, the Olympic champion in the 100 meter freestyle. According to the Australian, who loved gold in Rio Pieter Timmers in 2016, about half of his competitors have butter on their heads.

Chalmers made his striking statements during a podcast. “There is a lot of doping everywhere in swimming. You know it’s going on, and I realize I probably can’t trust half of the guys I meet. ”
Chalmers is not the first the best. He was just 18 in Rio when he captured Olympic gold. It was ago from Ian Thorpe in Sydney (2000) that Australian swimming delivered yet another young Olympic champion. Thorpe was barely 17 at the time. Chalmers added two more bronze medals in the relay in Brazil. Last year, Chalmers was good for silver at the World Cup in South Korea.
