The appeal period has been postponed and insisted on training with the team. Sun Yang may have a turning point for the Olympics

Sun Yang

declared a state of emergency in Switzerland last month due to the COVID-19 epidemic. The work of the Swiss Federal Supreme Court was also affected. The appeal period of China swimmer Sun Yang, who had been banned for eight years, was also extended. Recently, domestic media revealed that Sun Yang is currently training with the national swimming team. It can be seen that Sun Yang may have a turning point in competing in next year's Tokyo Olympics.

On February 28 this year, the International Court of Arbitration for Sports announced that Sun Yang would be suspended for eight years. It is reported that Sun Yang has rushed to the Swiss Federal Supreme Court three times, but none of his appeals were accepted. However, Sun Yang is ready for the final appeal and strives to continue his career. As the COVID-19 epidemic spreads around the world, the 30-day appeal period originally reserved for Sun Yang has been extended, and the Tokyo Olympics has been rescheduled to next year. This is undoubtedly good news for Sun Yang. If the court ruled that Sun Yangfang won the case after appeal, Sun Yang could continue to participate in next year's Tokyo Olympics.

Recently, a news article "Zheng Yao, director of the Sports Bureau of Zhejiang Province, visited Sun Yang, who was actively preparing for the war" attracted widespread attention. It is reported that Sun Yang has started training at the swimming pool of Zhejiang Sports Vocational and Technical College, the training base of the Zhejiang swimming team, since last month. Currently, Sun Yang is participating in the three-month Tokyo Olympics preparation training organized by the national swimming team.
