    At the age of 16, Miss Ye had just stunned spectators at the Olympic pool by swimming the final freestyle 50m of the 400m individual medley in 28.93seconds.

    'No coach that I spoke to yesterday could ever recall seeing anything remotely like that in a world level competition,' Leonard told the Guardian.

    Not only was her swim faster than the 27-year-old American Ryan Lochte had managed minutes earlier to win his gold in the men’s version of the same event, it was part of an overall time a whole five seconds quicker than her previous best.

    On Ye's performance, its stunning drugs or not. I've always thought they should just allow them to take anything they want. Nevermind drugs... China could be splicing in dolphin genes. Doesn't anyone remember Beijing? The coordination of the dancers was beyond incredible into scary. How could you not find that level of excellence from such a huge gene pool to choose from?

    I have to say, there are some sports out there that are less than Olympian in nature. 15k walk or whatever it is, are you serious?
