After claiming gold in the womens 100-meter breaststroke and conquering her new
nemesis, Yulia Efimova, U.
Discount Shoes Online .S. swimmer Lilly King
took aim at all Olympians who have been caught doping -- including her fellow
Americans.The 19-year-old from Indiana was asked about fellow American and 2004
gold medalist Justin Gatlin, who has twice been suspended for doping but will be
competing in track and field at the Rio Games.Do I think people who have been
caught for doping offenses should be on the team? No, they shouldnt, King said
Monday night after her victory. Its unfortunate that we have to see that and
then its such a tossup in between sports and in between countries. Its something
that needs to be set in stone that this is what were gonna do to settle this and
that should be the end of it. There should not be any bouncing back and
forth.Kings hard-nosed anti-doping stance became internationally known on Sunday
night when King pointedly disparaged Efimova over the Russians drug history.The
source of the feud is the suspension handed down to Efimova, who missed 16
months for doping and tested positive this year for the now-banned substance
meldonium. The positive meldonium test was placed on hold while world
anti-doping officials conduct further studies on the drug. A smattering of boos
greeted Efimova after she won her preliminary heat Sunday.After staring down
Efimova in the ready room on Monday and giving her a look of disdain on deck,
King led all the way to take the gold with an Olympic-record time of 1 minute,
4.93 seconds.Efimova, who heard a round of boos and a few cheers during the
introductions, settled for the silver in 1:05.50. The bronze went to another
American, Katie Meili.It just proves you can complete clean and still come out
on top with all the hard work you put in behind the scenes, behind the meet, at
practice and in weight sessions, and there is a way to become the best and do it
the right way, King said.King will look to collect a second gold as she is
scheduled to compete in the womens 200-meter backstroke on Wednesday.

of the scoring came in the final 20:04. Lucic scored on a power play at 15:46 of
the third period, when he tipped a shot over Stars goalie Kari Lehtonen for a
3-1 lead. The story till thenKhashaba Dadasaheb Jadhav, one of five sons of a
wrestler himself, grew up in Goleshwar village, about 75km north of Kolhapur, a
princely state in which wrestling received royal patronage. Jadhav took to the
sport at a young age - records argue between eight and ten - and grew into a
formidable wrestler in his teens. In 1948 he beat national flyweight champion
Niranjan Das of Bengal in Lucknow to earn his ticket to the 1948 London
Austerity Olympic Games. The Maharaja of Kolhapur financed the trip and Jadhav
was to finish sixth. By the time the Helsinki Olympics came around in 1952, the
princely state of Kolhapur had been erased and Jadhav had to ask for public
donations to pay for his journey to Finland. The public contributed towards his
kit and R Khardikar, the principal of Kolhapurs Rajaram College, where Jadhav
studied, mortgaged his house for Rs 7000 to send his student to the Games.The
moment Jadhav, who competed in the flyweight category in London, participated in
Helsinki as a bantamweight fighter. There were new rules to deal with - like
needing a two-second pin of the opponents shoulders on the floor to be awarded
victory. He also needed to get used to the mat, instead of the Indian method of
wrestling in mud. Jadhav won each of his first five bouts at the Olympics in
less than five minutes. In a bout for a place in the final, eventual gold
medallist Ishii Shobachi needed 15 minutes to defeat Jadhav, by a single
point.Though a half-hour break was specified between contests, Jadhav was rushed
into his next bout, against the Soviet Unions Rashid Mammadbeyov. There was no
Indian official on hand to fight Jadhavs case and, exhausted from the bout
against Shobachi, he was defeated easily. Rather than get another shot to take
on Shobachi in the final, Jadhav was quickly beaten into the No. 3 spot. No one
could deny, though, that it was Jadhav who had earned Indian wrestling its
earliest recognition in Olympic history.The reaction There is little recorded
history about responses to Jadhavs medal, either from the wrestler himself or
from the new nation state. History does record, though, that when Jadhav
returned to his village, a procession of 151 bullock carts and drummers welcomed
him home.

remembers that day, telling a journalist, Every villager was basking in that
moment of glory. Khashaba bhau brought the small village of Goleshwar, earlier a
dot on the map, to the fore. The whole world knew and recognised Goleshwar as
the village that gave India its first ever Olympic champion.Expert view One of
his peers, Banda Patil, who lived in a neighbouring village, told me that after
farm work in the day, Khashaba would take mattresses tied together out into his
fields and train on them in the evenings. He was a diamond from the rough and
we, his state, his country, left him there. Rather than receive awards after his
death, Khashaba should have been the countrys first Arjuna Award winner. I tell
all my young trainees that KD Jadhavs standard - an Olympic medallist - is the
one they need to emulate. -?Kaka Pawar, Indian wrestler and coachThe story since
When Jadhav returned from Helsinki he staged a wrestling tournament to raise
money to allow his college principal to buy back the house he had sold to fund
Jadhavs trip.Despite his Olympic success, whose historical resonance continues
to grow, his life after Helsinki was a struggle. Jadhav was inducted into the
Maharashtra police in 1955 and was to serve as a sub-inspector for 22 years,
only promoted six months before retirement. He died in a motorcycle accident in
1984, but awards and recognition came only after his death, because of his
familys determination to ensure that their champion was publicly appreciated.
Jadhav was to receive two major awards - Maharashtras highest sporting honour,
the Shiv Chhatrapati Award (1994), and the Arjuna Award (2000) - only
posthumously. He is the only Indian Olympic medallist not to receive a Padma
award. In 2010, the wrestling stadium at the Indira Gandhi Sports Complex was
named after Jadhav, before the Commonwealth Games in New Delhi.Recommended
