Hello and welcome to more or less on the BBC World Service.

This week the programme is dominated by a story from the Olympics.

Ye Shuan, a young Chinese swimmer, won the 400 metre individual medley in fine style a few days ago.

But then the head of the US Swimming Coaches Association, who incidentally isn't part of the US team,

called that performance, disturbing.

And the swimmer was forced to deny that she'd been taking drugs.

Well, Wesley Stevenson's here.

Let's just remind ourselves what happened in that race.

So at first no one was dominating.

So through the butterfly and the backstroke stages within the third stage,

the breaststroke, things started to take shape.

The American swimmer, Elizabeth Beisel, started to pull away.

And no one had really mentioned Ye Shuan at this point.

Yeah, the commentators had said that Beisel had slammed the door on the race.

He slammed the door. She was that far ahead.

And then two lengths to go.

Two lengths to go.

As the competitors started swimming freestyle, it looked like this happened.

It was extraordinary. Yes, you won.
