Brazil’s Joao de Lucca (L) refuses to take the hand of China’s Sun Yang as he comes out of the water after completing a 4X200m freestyle relay heat at the 2019 FINA Championships at Nambu University Municipal Aquatics Center in Gwangju.

Other competitors have refused to have their picture taken with Sun over allegations that he destroyed vials containing blood samples for a doping test.
