Russian swimmer Yuliya Efimova responded Friday to criticism from American Lilly King regarding her history with doping.
On Sunday, King gestured toward Efimova after a race, and on Monday, she proposed that athletes caught doping should not be allowed to compete in the Olympics.
Finally, on Thursday night, Efimova responded.
“What would she say about Michael Phelps?” the Russian said, according to Yahoo! Sports’ Jeff Passan.
Efimova was referencing Phelps’s marijuana use, which earned him a three-month suspension in 2009, and his six-month ban for DUI in 2014.
“Of course I’m not for doping, and I’ve never used it on purpose,” Efimova continued.
