When a sport is dear to our hearts (swimming laps is for me) we watch Olympiads with great enthusiasm. After China’s Ye Shiwen set a world record in the women’s 400-meter, she was accused of using drugs. I was appalled and saddened for Ye. As you may know, she was quickly cleared. I admire her for her professional demeanor and of course, her amazing hard work and talent to have become a top athlete. I’m proud of Ye Shiwen.
