Todd Pearson has won a Silver medal at the Athens Olympics, as part of the Men's 4 x 200 Metres Freestyle Relay team.
After leading out the Australian team which qualified second fastest in the heats, Todd was unfortunately not selected in the final four and could only watch from the stands as the Americans took an early lead and held on to win by just 0.13 seconds.
But Todd and the other heat swimmers will receive silver medals as part of the team, to go with his two golds from Sydney 2000 and a sixth placing in the 4 x 100 Relay earlier this week.
