In an Australian TV interview, Horton said that drugs in sport is very prevalent. If this is the case, why doesn't Horton refuse to stand on the podium with any athlete, because, according to him, they are probably drug cheats.

Horton is no more than a xenophobic attention seeker. If he withdrew from competitive swimming, his troubles would be over; that would be a real protest.

As long as he doesn't shake Jack's hand neither (if she's proven to be a cheat), then he's not a hypocrite

Treat cheating opponents and teammates the same
