But the 29-year-old has indicated that he plans to continue training and race at the 2024 Olympics in Paris.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this week, in Sun\u2019s appeal case, the CAS instituted a ban of four years based on Sun\u2019s 2018 actions during an out-of-competition doping test. The decision confirmed the Chinese swimmer will not be in Tokyo and will not have the chance to defend his Olympic title in the 200-meter freestyle. However, with the ban backdated, Sun will become eligible to compete at the Paris Games. He will be 32 years when the Olympics move to the French capital.<\/p>\n<p>Sun indicated that he feels \u201cin great physical condition\u201d and will use the CAS ruling against him as motivation for the next Olympiad. Sun was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/sun-yang-vs-wada-verdict-damning-eight-year-ends-career-of-chinese-controversy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">initially banned for eight years<\/a>, but he appealed that ruling and was allowed a retrial when one of the three original judges was found to be bias based on social-media posts he previously made against China.<\/p>\n<p>The CAS decision to ban Sun from action in Tokyo was met with applause from several of the biggest names in the sport, particularly world-record breaststroker <strong>Adam Peaty<\/strong>.
