Oxford rower's message to Trenton Oldfield: 'You are a mockery of a man'

Yesterday Oxford rower William Zeng wrote on Twitter:

"When I missed your head with my blade I knew only that you were a swimmer, and if you say you are a protester then, no matter what you say your cause may be, your action speaks too loudly for me to hear you.

"I know, with immediate emotion, exactly what you you were protesting. You were protesting the right of seventeen young men and one woman to compete fairly and honorably, to demonstrate their hard work and desire in a proud tradition.

"You were protesting their right to devote years of their lives, their friendships, and their souls to the fair pursuit of the joys and the hardships of sport.

"You, who would make a mockery of their dedication and their courage, are a mockery of a man."
