Is this the nature of your inquiry or is it something else? http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/afp_sports/view/405149/1/.html
My guess is, "Something Else"

Ok, I'll bite...His individual carreer is over, but i think he will be back next olympics and swim in some relays...
But will his alleged usage of an illegal drug restrict him from the games? There is a four year limit and he's inside that time frame.
On what information do you ask this question? I didn't know swimmers had a career. Can you justify your question. No is the answer without proper intelligence.

No. I think it will depend a lot on what happens between now and the next Olympic Games. I know he is relatively young, but you'd think he would have had a little more common sense than to do such a stupid thing. He makes it to the top of his game, he has the public's love and support, he had all of America behind him, He was improving the image and interest in his sport. Then this. I know he regrets it but it's not like this is his first offense.; He was busted with DUI at 19yrs old too. I hope people will be forgiving. I haven't heard if his eligibility is in jeopardy or not.... but that might be what it comes down to.Can you imagine how his Mother feels right now. :((((
