RIO DE JANEIRO -- A female Chinese swimmer has tested positive for a banned substance at the Rio Olympics, Chinas swimming association said early Friday. She is the first competitor in the sport to fail a test at these Games.The Chinese Swimming Association said Chen Xinyi tested positive for the diuretic hydrochlorothiazide after she finished fourth in the womens 100-meter butterfly Sunday, missing a bronze medal by nine one-hundredths of a second. Xinhua, Chinas official state news agency, reported the story Friday.The 18-year-old was scheduled to compete in the 50-meter freestyle beginning Friday.Chen has applied to the International Olympic Committee to have her B sample tested and to get a hearing on the matter, Xinhua said, citing the swimming association.The CSA has taken this matter seriously and demanded full cooperation from Chen in the investigation, the association said in the statement quoted by Xinhua.Chens result comes after doping has been a major concern in the Rio Games. Seven Russian swimmers have been allowed to compete in Rio after initially being banned following allegations of a state-sponsored doping operation in their homeland. That decision has sparked vocal complaints from several swimmers, most notably American Lilly King.No statement about Chens reported test was posted to the website of the Chinese Swimming Association, and calls to its offices rang unanswered Friday. FINA, the international governing body of swimming, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.Chens teammate Wang Shun declined to comment after he won bronze in Thursdays 200-meter individual medley.This situation, I dont know the details, Wang said.Li Keke, a spokeswoman for Chinas national anti-doping agency, said she had no additional information on the Chen case.We have noticed media reports about the case. So far, the anti-doping agency has yet to receive any official confirmation, Li told The Associated Press.This reported test should be generated by the organizer. The Olympic committee and FINA should know about it. At present, we will continue to monitor. Larry Robinson Jersey .

Jesperi Kotkaniemi Canadiens Jersey .ca NHL Power Rankings for the second straight week, ahead of the Pittsburgh Penguins and Colorado Avalanche. Youve heard of Buccis Overtime Challenge? Well, this is Buccis Hat Trick Challenge. Whats the challenge part? Regularly coming up with three hits about the World Cup of Hockey. Mondays games are Team Czech Republic vs. Team Europe (3 p.m., ESPN2) and Team North America vs. Team Russia (8 p.m., ESPN2).1. Youth was served: Well, the kids are fine. No surprise. These North American beauts are elite, first-line NHL players. Aaron Ekblad and Morgan Rielly are an excellent shutdown pair, certainly better than most other teams outside of Canada and Sweden. Johnny Gaudreau is a big-time, big-moment player who reminds one of Patrick Kane. Last year, in his 22-year-old season, Gaudreau was 30-48-78. Kanes 22-year-old season? 27-46-73. I dont know what the Calgary Flames trepidation is with a long-term Gaudreau deal (besides cap management, which is always understandable), but its time for the two sides to stop fooling around and get this done. He is not only one of the most productive players in the NHL but also a human Christmas tree lit from bucket to pedaals.dddddddddddd2. MacKinnon storms in: Nathan MacKinnon was a certified wagon for Team North America versus Finland. He played a classic, old-school, Cam Neely,?Rick Tocchet-winger game. He was skating, banging and going to the net. You wonder if this is who/what he could be in the NHL playing with Matt Duchene in the middle. Centers are obviously the arteries of an NHL team, but McKinnon looked like he was in his natural habitat.3. Game of Hoodies: North American gear is flying off the shelves. The light hoodies are my favorite. The uniforms and gear are an interesting Game of Thrones meets Bell Biv Devoe 1990, neon-orange amalgamation. With his pads and ranginess, Matt Murray could be one of the dragons. Gaudreau as Tyrion Lannister. Connor McDavid as Jon Snow. Aaron Ekblad as Khal Drogo. Auston Matthews as Tormund Giantsbane. Brandon Saad as Jaime Lannister. Jon Cooper as Jorah Mormont. I could go on, but Ill stop. ' ' '
