TOKYO, July 30 ― Ryan Murphy said Friday's 200m backstroke final was “probably not clean” after he lost his Olympic title to Russian Evgeny Rylov but the US swimmer quickly walked back his comments when asked if he was accusing any of his rivals of cheating.

“I've got 15 thoughts, 13 of them would get me into a lot of trouble,” said Murphy when asked by a reporter shortly after his event if he had any concerns about his races in relation to doping. At a later news conference, however, Murphy said he was only talking about doping in swimming in general and congratulated Rylov and British bronze medal winner Luke Greenback.
