China's triple Olympic champion Sun Yang claimed gold in the men's 400m freestyle at the 2024 National Summer Swimming Championships on Sunday in Hefei, east China's Anhui Province.

Sun, representing Zhejiang Province, won his title in three minutes and 49.58 seconds. After returning from a 51-month suspension, the 32-year-old showed his supremacy by leading the race from the first 200m.

In June 2021, a panel of the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) announced that Sun Yang committed Anti-Doping Rule Violations "when an unsuccessful attempt was made to collect blood and urine samples from him at his residence on September 4-5, 2018."

Sun's 51-month suspension ended on May 28.
