Letter to the Journal

1. On 5 October 2018, Fédération Internationale de Natation (FINA) alleged that SUN Yang, a Chinese swimmer, violated Article 2.3 (Refusing or Failing to Submit) and 2.5 (Tampering or Attempted Tampering with Any Part of Doping Control) of the FINA Doping Control Rules (the FINA DC) because Sun questioned the official documentation shown by the out-of-competition inspection team, which led to the failure of the sample collection mission. On 3 January 2019, the FINA Doping Panel decided that the sample collection session, initiated by International Doping Tests and Management (IDTM) on 4 September 2018, was invalid and void, and no FINA DC rule violations could result therefrom.

2. On 14 February 2019, the World Anti-Doping Agency ...
