American sprinter Justin Gatlin has a message for United States swimmer Lilly King: Not so fast.King, 19, was critical earlier this week about the Olympic participation of athletes -- including Gatlin -- who have tested positive for banned substances in the past. Gatlin has twice been caught using banned substances, but is considered the top threat to unseating Jamaican star Usain Bolt in the 100-meter final Sunday.I dont even know who Lilly King is, Gatlin said after winning his 100-meter heat Saturday in 10.01 seconds -- the best time of the day. She does swimming and not track and field.Im not worried about that. I have confidence in my policies that Im with. USADA (United States Anti-Doping Agency) has done a great job. WADA (World Anti-Doping Agency) has done a great job. I have come back and done what I need to do.The 34-year-old Gatlin, who won gold at 100 meters at the 2004 Olympics, first tested positive for amphetamines, though arbitrators determined he didnt use them for doping but to treat attention deficit disorder. The second came for excessive testosterone in 2006 and resulted in a four-year ban.Ive worked hard, just like everybody else, and I get tested, just like everybody else, Gatlin said Saturday. Im back here. I believe in the system. I hope everybody else believes in the system too.King originally made her comments after the Court of Arbitration for Sport allowed Russian swimmer Yulia Efimova to compete in Rio after a last-minute appeal of her doping ban.When asked about Gatlin, King remained critical.Do I think people who have been caught doping should be on the team? They shouldnt, said King, who beat Efimova to win the gold medal in the womens 100-meter breaststroke. Its unfortunate that we have to see that and then its such a tossup in between sports and in between countries. Its something that needs to be set in stone that this is what were gonna do to settle this and that should be the end of it. There should not be any bouncing back and forth.

RIO DE JANEIRO -- With their ponytails flapping and their American flag spinnaker billowing in the breeze, Paris Henken and Helena Scutt sped across Guanabara Bay and became the first U.S. crew to win a race at the Rio Olympics regatta.Henken, of Coronado, California, and Scutt, of Kirkland, Washington, jumped into the lead at the start and flawlessly sailed their 49erFX skiff around the course to win the fifth race of the series Saturday.It was definitely something that we wanted to do, and was in the back of our minds, like, `Oh, we should win a race in the Olympics, Henken said. When it was actually happening, it was very exciting and were just very happy.Henken and Scutt are in their first Olympics, as is the 49erFX, which is similar to the mens 49er.The Americans are ninth overall with six races to sail before the medals race, 18 points out of podium position.The United States is trying to avoid a second straight Olympic sailing whitewash. The Americans failed to medal at London in 2012, the first time that happened since 1936.Until Saturday, the best finish for the United States in any class in Rio was second.The 49erFX is as wild as the 49er, with the crews sailing them hiked out in trapezes, their feet on the edge of the windward wing.Race 5 was restarted after a general recall. Right before the recall, the American boat capsized after it was hit by British boats sail. The Americans quickly righted it.Its a very fast boat compared to a lot of the other Olympic boats, Henken said. Its just a lot of fun how fast it goes, and you have to be on your toes all the time.There were big developments in several classes on a gorgeous day far below Christ the Redeemer and Sugarloaf Mountain.Tonci Stipanovic secured Croatias first medal in Olympic sailing, with at least a silver guaranteed in the Laser class. He finished seventh and third to take a 10-point lead over Australias Tom Burton going into Mondays medals race. Burton is guaranteed at least a bronze.While Stipanovic had a good day, Brazilian star Robert Scheidt had a mediocre one and sailed himself out of a chance for a gold medal. Scheidt, 43, is trying to become the first sailor and first Brazilian to win six Olympic medals. He finished 28th and 11th overall to drop to fifth with 87 points, meaning he can only win a bronze if things fall his way in thee medals race.ddddddddddddThere was good news for Evi Van Acker, the first competitor to report falling ill during the games from sailing on polluted Guanabara Bay. The defending bronze medalist in the Laser Radial, she had her best day so far, with finishes of first and fifth to jump into fourth. Shes nine points out of podium position going into Mondays medals race.Tomorrow Im going to rest all day, she said with a laugh.Van Acker struggled the first three days. Her coach said he believed she contracted a severe intestinal infection while training in Rio de Janeiro last month.Im fighting for every point because Im behind and I know every point counts, she said. But Im happy with my day. Im happy with the way I recovered after the bad three days.The Laser Radials were off Thursday, giving her a chance to rest.My body was really exhausted. I really had no energy. So I needed to rest and eat well and try to do everything to have more energy and be able to keep fighting.What was the miracle cure?A lot of rest, a lot of food and a lot of smiling, I guess, she said. That helps.In the mens 49er, New Zealanders Peter Burling and Blair Tuke maintained their lead but didnt win any of the four races. The defending silver medalists, they finished fifth, second, eighth and sixth. Theyre favored for gold after winning 27 straight regattas from 2012 until losing in the South American Championships here last month.The German crew of Erik Heil and Thomas Ploessel won the first of Saturdays four races and are second, three points behind the Kiwis.Defending gold medalists Nathan Outteridge and Iain Jensen of Australia jumped from 11th to sixth. They had finishes of second and fifth before faltering and going 11-12. Outteridge said the Aussies are making too many mistakes and have no excuses. With six races to go before the medals race, theyre five points out of bronze medal position.Also Saturday, American Caleb Paine of San Diego got a boost when his Race 6 disqualification was overturned. That means he jumps from 15th to seventh with two races to go before the medals race.
