CAS裁定对孙杨禁赛8年

近日，国际体育仲裁法庭(CAS)支持世界反兴奋剂机构的上诉，决定对中国游泳名将、奥运会和世锦赛冠军孙杨禁赛8年。

Sun said he will appeal to the Swiss Federal Tribunal against the CAS decision. Sun refused to complete a doping test conducted by the international testing company IDTM on Sept 4, 2018, saying the doping control officer and her assistants lacked sufficient authorization and credentials.
