RIO DE JANEIRO -- Lilly King has her sights set on winning Olympic gold and shes not about to let anyone get in her way, especially not world champion breaststroker Yulia Efimova of Russia.King made that clear in a finger-wagging display after her 100-meter breaststroke win over the Russian, who has a history of doping. King pointedly disparaged the Russian after the event over her drug history, and the feud has helped make doping spats among swimmers an intriguing subplot in the Rio Games so far.A separate fight over doping between swimmers from Australia and China escalated on Monday, prompting officials from the two nations to join the fray. And the dispute between King and Efimova has the potential to grow as the two compete for a medal Monday night.The source of the feuds is suspensions handed down to Efimova and Chinese swimmer Sun Yang, who served three months in 2014 over a banned heart medication. Efimovas actions and punishment were more severe -- she missed 16 months for doping and tested positive this year for the now-banned substance meldonium.The positive meldonium test was placed on hold while world anti-doping officials conduct further studies on the drug.If thats what she feels she needs to be able to compete, whatever, thats her deal, King told reporters. Im here to compete clean for the U.S. and thats what Im going to do.A smattering of boos greeted Efimova after she won her preliminary heat Sunday. The Russian mens 4x100 freestyle relay was also booed when introduced for their final the same night. For her part, Efimova waved a No. 1 finger after her semifinal Sunday, prompting King to do her own finger-wagging.The dispute between King and Efimova went beyond the pool when officials from Australia and China got involved.Australian swimmer Mack Horton originally labeled Sun a drug cheat. The Chinese Swimming Association asked Horton on Monday to apologize for his inappropriate words. Australias Olympic Committee shot back in Hortons defense hours later, saying he was speaking his mind in support of clean athletes and wished him luck.It was the second time in days that Horton had publicly referred to Suns drug suspension as part of what the Australian team acknowledged is a campaign to rattle the Chinese star who won two golds at the 2012 Olympics.Sun has previously said he did not know the medication trimetazidine, which he took for chronic heart palpitations, had been placed on the banned list when he tested positive. He burst into tears Sunday after losing to Horton, garnering an outpouring of support from Chinese social media users who pilloried Horton on his Facebook page. The Australian was accused of snubbing Suns attempt to congratulate him on his win immediately after the race, although the two did briefly shake hands later at the podium.The spiraling row has generated a shrill response from Chinese media during what has already been a period of elevated tensions after Australia voiced opposition in recent weeks to Chinese claims of maritime territory.On Monday, Xinhua released a slew of gently critical articles on topics ranging from Australian trade policy to Melbournes quality of life. The Global Times tabloid opted for a more blunt approach, referring to Australia in a commentary as a former British offshore prison that is on the fringes of civilization.As part of the International Olympic Committees decision not to throw the entire Russian team out of the Olympics, Efimova was initially banned along with six other Russian swimmers who either had positive tests on their record or were named in an investigation of Russias massive, state-sanctioned doping scheme.Now, it looks like theyll all be competing in Rio de Janeiro, though world swimming body FINA has not fully explained why.Efimova is also expected to swim the 200 breaststroke and presumably the 4x100 medley relay. She will swim next to each other in the 100-meter breaststroke final Monday night.Efimova declined to speak with reporters after the semifinals, but promised to talk after Mondays final. Earlier Sunday, she described the last six months as crazy and said she didnt understand whats going on.When pressed about criticism from rival swimmers and coaches, she smiled and walked away.Ruta Meilutyte of Lithuania, the world record holder in the 100 breast, said Efimovas doping history is disrespectful to other athletes.We train fair, she said. When something like that happens, its never nice. These are not the values of our sport.---Shih contributed from Beijing. Tani Tupou Jersey .

Andrew Wiggins made 10-of-12 from the foul line and scored 17 for Kansas (14-4, 5-0 Big 12), which capped a stretch of four straight games against ranked opponents unscathed. OTTAWA, Ontario -- Mike Condon showed his new coach he was prepared for his debut with the Ottawa Senators despite the circumstances.Condon, who was acquired from the Pittsburgh Penguins on Wednesday for a 2017 fifth-round draft pick, made 27 saves as the Senators blanked the Vancouver Canucks 1-0 on Thursday night.Upon learning of the trade, Condon flew from Los Angeles to arrive in Ottawa in the early hours Thursday morning and managed to grab a few hours of sleep before meeting with Senators goalie coach Pierre Groulx in preparation for his first game with the Senators.Came as advertised, Senators coach Guy Boucher said. I was expecting nervous, but our goalie coach said hell be calm and thats exactly what he was. He was calm throughout the entire game.Condon made his first career NHL start last year in Ottawa on Oct. 11 as a member of the Montreal Canadiens and posted a 3-1 victory.The Senators (7-3-0) couldnt say enough about Condons performance considering the situation over the past 48 hours.Coming in yesterday and then playing today Im guessing wasnt the easiest scenario for him, but he came in and played a heck of a game, said Mike Hoffman, who scored the games only goal. Hes a big reason we came out with two points.Jacob Markstrom made 23 saves for the Canucks (4-6-1), who have lost seven straight (0-6-1) and have been shut out in four of their past five games.The Senators also shut out the Canucks 3-0 just over a week ago in Vancouver.Its disappointing, Canucks coach Willie Desjardins said. We played them better this time than we did at home. I thought we had a better effort, but at the same time weve got to find ways to score.Condon will likely get the nod in goal Saturday against the Buffalo Sabres as Craig Anderson has taken an indefinite leave to be with his wife, Nicholle, who was diagnosed with cancer.Andrew Hammond remains sidelined with a groin injury and is exxpected to miss at least another week.ddddddddddddDespite having played just one period of hockey this season, Condon looked solid, making a number of key saves throughout the game. The Senators helped Condon by blocking 25 shots, including five by Erik Karlsson.Condon made a number of stops in the third period to keep the Canucks off the board, including two on Jannik Hansen and Sven Baertschi.I know theyre a desperate team right now, and we knew that coming in, Condon said. They like to throw pucks at the net from a lot of odd angles and that causes a little bit of chaos, but our defense did a good job boxing out in front of the net and not letting them get second opportunities, so it was a good overall effort.The Senators relied on Condon early in the second as well as Vancouver dictated much of the play. Ottawa had just one shot on goal through the first 10 minutes of the period.We played a really good game and created enough chances for a couple [goals], but thats been the story so far this year, Vancouvers Henrik Sedin said. We realize its only Game 11 and we have to keep working and doing the same things and know its not a lack of chances.Ottawa made the most of a giveaway by Erik Gudbranson at the 14-minute mark of the second period as Markstrom tried to play the loose puck but instead left a wide-open cage for Hoffman.This was the final meeting between the teams this season.Game notes Ottawa RW Mark Stone missed the game due to a neck injury, while D Chris Wideman was a late scratch due to an upper-body injury. LW Max McCormick and Fredrik Claesson were recalled from Binghamton and were in the lineup. ... Vancouver RW Jack Skille and D Alex Biega were healthy scratches.UP NEXT:Canucks: at Toronto on Saturday.Senators: host Buffalo on Saturday.
