Sun's latest career milestone comes after fresh allegations in a leaked FINA doping report that claimed the Chinese giant smashed blood samples with a hammer after being visited by testers last year.

The solution seems simple: Treat such actions as an admission of guilt.

Its not that he refused to give his blood. He initially complied with all of their requests. They simply didn't follow the rules and had improper paperwork. When they came to collect his blood sample, they are supposed to have 3 forms of identification. 2 of the 3 people had none and 1 person only had 1. He then gave his blood willingly. Then when it came time for him to sign his paperwork, the papers were wrong and when he asked questions about it, they couldn't give him straight answers, so he then called his coach in because he was unsure about what to do or if the people were even real. His coach and legal team told him because something was suspicious, that he should not sign anything or give up anything until they come back with all the correct registered materials and identification.

I don't think he did anything wrong. Blame the DCA employees for dropping the ball.

Don’t you think it would have just been easier to refuse?
