Australian swimmer Nick D’Arcy who is facing charges on assault has accepted the decision to ban him from the 2008 Beijing Olympics. The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) rejected D’Arcy’s final appeal.

“I’m very disappointed with yesterday’s decision, although I accept yesterday’s decision,” D’Arcy said. “I have now exhausted all the options available to me for appeal and otherwise.

“I personally believe the CAS hearing was fair and considered so that makes it easier for me to accept the decision.”
