Sun was the two-time defending champion, and his absence left lane three open for the race.<\/p>\n<p>Sun, 23, said he began feeling heart pain after winning the 800 freestyle on Wednesday, but did not feel the need to withdraw from the 1500 freestyle. He coasted through prelims of the 1500 on Saturday, qualifying third with a 14:55.11.<\/p>\n<p>During the warmup for tonight\u2019s 1500 free final, Sun said he was feeling the same pains in his chest, and made the decision on his own to pull out of the race. He did not give specifics on the time when he decided to withdraw from the race, saying through an interpreter, \u201cI did not notice the (time).\u201d Not notifying the proper people about his withdrawal left officials unable to notify first alternate <strong>Pal Joensen<\/strong> of the Faroe Islands that he would be able to compete.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI feel very sorry that I could not be in the 1500 freestyle competition,\u201d he said, noting that this is the first time he\u2019s experienced heart issues. But Sun received a three-month doping suspension for a banned substance inside his heart medication last year, suggesting there had been heart troubles before this week.<\/p>\n<p>Italy\u2019s <strong>Gregorio Paltrinieri<\/strong> won the event with a European record 14:39.67. Sun offered his congratulations to Paltrinieri, saying \u201cit was a very good performance today. I hope to practice, and I am waiting for the Olympic Games to compete together.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sun did not receive any medical treatment for his chest pain, but said he will when he returns to China tomorrow.<\/p>\n<p>Sun nor his translator, who did not give his name but identified himself as a member of the Chinese team\u2019s medical staff, would answer questions regarding a reported altercation with a Brazilian female swimmer earlier in the day. Reports indicate that Sun was in a lane with the unidentified swimmer and was unusually rough in attempting to pass her. This resulted in alleged blows between the two swimmers and an exchange of harsh words with Sun and a Brazilian official, who reported the incident to FINA. During the press conference, Sun\u2019s translator said the alleged altercation and the withdrawal from the race were unrelated, and would not offer any comment on the incident.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shortly after accepting his second-straight Male Swimmer of the Meet award at the FINA world championships, Sun Yang held a press
