Palmer, 25, was robbed of $1,000 and his wallet and phone on the night out, while McKeon, 22, stayed with friends in Copacabana until the next morning without telling the team management.

After Australia’s other swimmers returned to the Games village, McKeon went to her friends’ and Palmer headed to a beach with a friend to keep drinking.

He has since said a man forced a man to withdraw cash from ATM; he was then found ‘’disorientated without his wallet and phone' by two businessmen in the Copa district of Rio de Janeiro, according to The Australian.
