Foster return

BRITISH swimmer Mark Foster has ruled out competing at his home Olympic Games next year as he does not envisage winning a medal, the six-time world champion said yesterday. Foster, 41, returned from retirement to compete at the 2008 Beijing Games, his fifth Olympics. "I was tempted, many times, and I never announced I was retiring (after Beijing) because I always wanted to keep the door open," Foster told BBC. "There comes a time when you would rather walk away than hobble away," he said.
