In which year did Lochte receive a 14-month suspension?

  • 2016

  • 2017

  • 2018

  • 2019

Answer

Lochte's 14-month suspension in 2018 stemmed from his fabrication about being robbed at gunpoint during the 2016 Rio Olympics. He and three other swimmers had vandalized a gas station bathroom and concocted the robbery story to cover it up. The ensuing scandal led to widespread criticism, damaged Lochte's reputation, and resulted in significant consequences for his swimming career and public image.
