Dutch swimmer Arno Kamminga is getting a lot of reactions at the Paris Olympics, and it has nothing to do with his performance.
Olympics fans were left in shock by Arno Kamminga’s choice of swimming shorts before competing in the 100-metre breaststroke final in Paris.
He could be seen rocking a striking pair of shorts, which were predominantly white and had orange and grey triangle patterns dotted across them.
The Dutch swimmer had Olympic viewers going crazy as he emerged from the water and gave them a spicy look.
Kamminga became an overnight sensation not so much for his performance in the pool as for how he looked when he emerged from it.
With the pattern featuring a shade of orange that looks incredibly close to skin tone when wet, Arno Kamminga looked like he was wearing nothing more than a small patch of fabric over his man region.
Olympics-Dutch Medallist Arno Kamminga Openly Questions Handling of Chinese Swimmers’ Doping
Dutch swimmer Arno Kamminga may be going viral over his swimming trunks, but he is also a man who is not afraid to speak out on matters related to his spot.
Kamminga described the case of the 23 Chinese swimmers testing positive for a banned drug as a “lose-lose situation” while also questioning how the investigation was handled ahead of the Olympic Games in Paris.
The World Anti-Doping Agency confirmed in April that 23 Chinese swimmers tested positive for TMZ (trimetazidine), which is a medication that increases blood flow to the heart.
WADA eventually accepted the findings of a Chinese investigation that this was due to substance contamination.
Kamminga didn’t mnce words when he brought up the fact that “they didn’t tell anyone” about the positive tests until April.
“Everyone is questioning it, so it’s a lose-lose situation for everyone – for swimming lovers but also for the Chinese swimmers themselves. I think it’s hard to judge or say anything without knowing everything,” Kamminga told Reuters.
“The problem is the way in which it was handled. For them to just cover it up, not say anything instead of being up front and transparent with us, I think that’s where the problem lies for most people.
“Whether they’re positive or not, I don’t know. I can’t say anything about it. I hope I can trust WADA that the conclusion was right… I’m just disappointed in the way it was handled.”
