Mad Respect on Pan Zhanle, Despite he is just 19, he much mature than his USA and Aussie Competitor
Able to being assertive but without trying to be aggresive
Big Congrats to you Champ
Don't listen to that Jealous Sour Grape

Please look at Pan technique in swimming freestyle. As a swimmer myself he is my perfect swimmer. His body is horizontal cutting through the water and minimises resistance. Why this panel does not talk about his technique. I see his style is PERFECT SWIMMER. I cannot swim like that.

Team China. Powering ASIA and the World 🌍 ❤ 👏👏👏 Respect from Malaysia

There are no questions. Guy is so fast taking hands out of the water and in again, . And you can actually see technique in slow motion at the end of the race. He is keeping his hands out close to water surface, while others are taking big swings. Just watch it again. Guy is incredible truly. 👏👏👏

Western media cannot accept the fact that China has produced such a great swimmer . .

[samyang]

American & Australian swimmers should just accept the fact that they have lost to a better swimmer & not hurling lame excuses & accusation for their failure. What they should do is to train harder. My support & congrats to the Chinese swimming team, from S'pore 🇸🇬🍻🍻🍻

I'm glad the Chinese are showing such great athletic achievement. It's needed, and hopefully will influence other Asian countries to follow suit in sport.

Salute to Pan Zhanle！
From Hong Kong. ❤

[samvan]

Congrats to all the athletes participating in this Olympics from Toronto, Canada, with particularly mention to Pan. In Olympic spirit, there is no losers as every athlete is chasing his/her own dream. The real losers are those cannot accept the truth and work harder to improve themselves!

I speculate the secret to Pan's WR breaking performances (2 times so far in Paris Olympics) has to do with his life long hard work and NOT relying on the approved "asthma" performance enhancing drugs especially like some of the other swimmers from the West.

[hoanpham]

Pan Zhanle was on top of the swimming 's world, you are so talented and keeps Chinese 's flag flies on higher and higher thank you ❤❤❤

[elainetamika]

Pan Zhenle won aganist the "asthma" team.

[victorlimpohfah]

Wow. A Truly Spectacular Super Swimmer. Bravo 👌👏👏

Good episode.. Its far fairer than anything I have heard from main stream media in the US.
I mean even the NBC annoucer who was reporting the 4x100 men's medley relay had to bring up the drug issue after Pan won.
Pan was swimming on his birthday and he mentioned how some of the westerrn atheletes said rude and disrepected him and his team mates.
This surely gave Pan the motivation to beat the Americans.and other teams.

[hongqi]

Next time the US will accuse China Athletes for over training. 😂😂

It’s about technique, sheer hard work and raw talent. Pan did it. Pan is a diamond in the rough out of 1.6 billion people he’s the best.
