A separate fight over doping between swimmers from Australia and China escalated on Monday, prompting officials from the two nations to join the fray. Efimova's actions and punishment were more severe — she missed 16 months for doping and tested positive this year for the now-banned substance meldonium. And the dispute between King and Efimova has the potential to grow as the two compete for a medal Monday night. King made that clear in a finger-wagging display after her 100-meter breaststroke win over the Russian, who has a history of doping. Ruta Meilutyte of Lithuania, the world record holder in the 100 breast, said Efimova's doping history is disrespectful to other athletes.
