What does everyone think about the Ye Shiwen swimming performance?

[Danthus]

Ye Shiwen, a 16 year old Chinese swimmer won gold in the 400m individual IM.

Nothing out of the ordinary there, however she knocked 5 seconds off her PB.

The 50m freestyle leg she swam was faster than Ryan Lochtes time.

Taking into consideration the swimmers are no longer wearing the high tech suits does this raise eyebrows for anyone else?

Just a brilliant swim, this sort of thing is pretty common in swimming.

Beating your own best by 5 seconds is common. Don't forget that her time for the 50m freestyle leg was better than Lochte.

Terrific swim, well deserved gold. She passed the drug test, congrats to her on her gold is what I say

We are just jealous that there aren't many Brits as talented as her at such a young age.

Has she passed the test, I know all medal winners have been tested.

She has passed according to WADA.
