Greek swimmer Kristian Gkolomeev beats a world record in the pool at the controversial Enhanced Games in Las Vegas.
Australian swimmer Cameron McEvoy criticized the inaugural Enhanced Games after Greek swimmer Kristian Gkolomeev narrowly surpassed his 50m freestyle world record, achieved under controversial conditions.
Australian swimmer James Magnussen, despite two years of supervised doping, finished last in both the 100m and 50m freestyle events at the Enhanced Games in Las Vegas.
The inaugural Enhanced Games in Las Vegas saw only one world record broken, with Greek swimmer Kristian Gkolomeev's performance overshadowed by victories from three 'clean' athletes.
At the Enhanced Games in Las Vegas, Greek swimmer Kristian Gkolomeev broke the 50m freestyle world record, earning a $1 million bonus, while Fred Kerley fell short in his event.
