Swimming's governing body FINA said on Wednesday that Spanish Olympic swimmer Sergio Garcia was banned for one year after failing to report his whereabouts for drug testing and will be ineligible for 2012 London Games.
FINA says it imposed the ban because Garcia broke the rules three times within 18 months
Under IOC rules, Garcim cannot compete in London Olympic Games because the doping ban is more than six months.
Garcia, who swam the 200-meter breaststroke heats at the Beijing Olympics, is the second Spaniard this month to face FINA for whereabouts violations.
