Amid a Chinese doping scandal, legendary swimmer Michael Phelps voiced his support for harsher penalties for those who test positive for banned substances.
"If everybody is not going through that same testing, I have a serious problem because it means the level of sport is not fair and it's not even," Phelps said, per the Associated Press (h/t ESPN). "If you're taking that risk, then you don't belong in here."
Phelps also emphasized the importance of winning without using banned substances, noting all the accomplishments he achieved without cheating and the lengths he went to to ensure there was no speculation.
