McKeon is returning home with one bronze, two silvers, and one gold medal, in addition to being a part of the World Record-breaking 400 free relay, while Palmer finished 30th overall in prelims of the men&#8217;s 100 breaststroke with a time of 1:01.13.<\/p>\n<p>Swimming Australia later released a statement supporting the AOC&#8217;s decision.<\/p>\n<p>Read the full statement from Swimming Australia here:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Swimming Australia said today it supports the decision by the Australian Olympic Committee to sanction two swimmers; Joshua Palmer and Emma McKeon.<\/p>\n<p>Swimming Australia CEO, <strong>Mark Anderson<\/strong> stated that &#8220;our athletes safety, health and well-being is of paramount importance and the sanctions applied reinforces this position for the two involved athletes and the team.&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;Over the course of the Olympic Games the Australian swim team has represented Australia and the team well and have been very mindful of their responsibilities as Australian Olympic Team members,\u201d Anderson said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe values of the Olympic Team and the Australian Swim team are our foundation. We hold each other accountable for these values. These are two isolated incidents that do not reflect on the whole team.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Following a night out both Palmer and McKeon failed to return to the Olympic Village or inform team management of their whereabouts.<\/p>\n<p>McKeon was separated from team members at a nightclub in Copacabana and as per the AOC safety protocol of not travelling alone she opted to stay with two female friends in this area rather than travelling back to the Village by herself. It was her failure to advise team management of this situation that has resulted in this sanction.<\/p>\n<p>Australian Head Coach <strong>Jacco Verhaeren<\/strong> said: \u201cIn both instances these are not issues of poor behaviour by either individual. The matters related to the safety of both swimmers and that is my and the team\u2019s priority,\u201d Verhaeren said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBoth athletes conducted themselves well and professionally throughout the competition.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>McKeon made the decision to stay with two international female swimmers that she has previously trained with rather than travel back alone, but notes that she failed to alert team management of this decision, which is a breach of the protocol.<\/p>\n<p>Palmer was also separated from teammates and continued to drink alone, compromising his safety and breaching the AOC safety protocol and placing himself at risk.<\/p>\n<p>Neither of the swimmers disturbed any competing athletes, it was primarily their safety and security that have caused these sanctions.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Australian Swim Team and Swimming Australia are fully committed to upholding the AOC values. We were involved in and support the decisions that have been made to ensure all of our team members remain safe for the remainder of the Games and we support the AOC in these endeavours,\u201d Anderson said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><em>Read the full report The Sydney Morning Herald <a href=\"http:\/\/www.smh.com.au\/sport\/olympics\/rio-2016\/olympics-off-the-field\/olympics-2016-australian-swimmers-josh-palmer-and-emma-mckeon-disciplined-after-night-out-and-robbery-in-rio-20160818-gqw396.html\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Australian teammates\u00a0Emma McKeon and\u00a0Josh Palmer have been reported as losing several privileges for the remainder of their stay in Rio after a night out.
