Peirsol DQed from 200 backstroke, then given gold





August 19, 2004

ATHENS, Greece (AP) -- Aaron Peirsol of the United States was disqualified from the 200-meter backstroke for what was called an illegal turn, then wound up with a gold medal when the decision was overturned on appeal Thursday night.


Peirsol, the world record-holder and current world champion, led most of the race and easily beat the field, touching first in 1 minute, 54.95 seconds. He was more than two seconds ahead of the next swimmer, Austria's Marcus Rogan.


Peirsol clutched a lane rope and held up his right index finger, thinking he had become the fifth swimmer to sweep both backstroke events at the Olympics, after already winning gold in the 100 back.

But there was a delay in putting up the official results. After several minutes, the scoreboard flashed ``DSQ'' beside Peirsol's name -- a disqualification. The crowd gasped and then began to boo. Still standing on deck, the 21-year-old Californian shrugged his shoulders in disbelief.


``It sounds pretty bogus to me,'' Peirsol said. ``I don't know what it is and I've got to go figure it out.''


The judges ruled that Peirsol made an illegal turn at the 150-meter mark. The United States filed a protest and FINA, the sport's governing body, overturned the disaqualification about 30 minutes later -- just before the medal ceremony was to be held.


Coincidentally, Peirsol stirred controversy earlier in the meet when he accused Japan's Kosuke Kitajima of doing an illegal dolphin kick while winning the 100 breaststroke. Swimming officials found nothing wrong with Kitajima's technique, and he completed a sweep of the breaststroke events in the 200 Wednesday night.


Rogan wound up with silver in 1:57.35, while Romania's Razvan Florea settled for bronze (1:57.56). Great Britain's James Goddard, who initially had a bronze, dropped back to fourth in 1:57.76.


Goddard was second much off the race, only to get passed by Rogan and Florea on the final leg, and slapped the water in disgust. He was edged out for a medal by 20-hundredths of a second after Peirsol's win was restored.


Peirsol won the 100 back Monday and duplicated teammate Lenny Krayzelburg's sweep of the backstroke events in 2000. At the Sydney Games, Peirsol gave a glimpse of his potential by winning silver in the 200.
