The US gold medal-winning swimmers hoped to draw a line under the scandal that erupt- ed when Lochte went public with a shocking report of how the four were mugged on their way back from a party in Rio de Janeiro. The claim that a man posing as a police officer held them up at gunpoint early Sunday and forced them to the ground sparked a media frenzy and pushed Brazilian Olympic authorities into an embarrassed apology. But after police declared the story was fabricated - saying all that happened was that the swimmers were subdued by security after getting drunk and vandalizing a gas station bathroom - the now discredited Lochte finally came clean. “I should have been much more responsible in how I handled myself and for that am sorry to my teammates, my fans, my fellow competitors, my sponsors and the hosts of this great event,” Lochte said in a statement. Late Thursday, US Olympic Committee CEO Scott Blackmun also apologized “to our hosts in Rio and the people of Brazil for this dis- tracting ordeal in the midst of what should rightly be a celebration of excellence”.
