First of all, we need to know the ins and outs of this matter.

At the Gwangju Swimming World Championships on July 22nd, Sun Yang won the men's 400-meter freestyle with a score of 3.42.44, while Horton from Australia won the runner-up, which is something that deserves everyone's happiness. However, when awarding prizes after the game, Horton refused to walk on the podium. It was an accident that never happened, which embarrassed everyone, and revealed that Horton wanted to be the third when he got on the podium.

Later, such remarks on the podium caused a heated discussion among netizens at home and abroad. Some foreign netizens think that if Horton is not convinced, he can say it before the game, instead of being so angry after the game. This is disrespectful to the stadium, which is the most sacred place for every athlete. Secondly, Richard Ince, the former CEO of the Australian Anti-Doping Agency, believes that Horton's rude behavior should be severely punished. His exact words were "I'm not a fan of Sun Yang. So Horton's failure to stand on the podium should be severely punished. This shows some attitudes at home and abroad that Horton should be punished.

Finally, although international sports organizations have not clearly defined the relevant content, attitude and punishment system, judging from the fermentation of this matter, Horton has been punished by him, and I believe this is only the beginning of punishing him. I believe that justice will only be a little later in time, but it will never be absent! !
