FINA urged to quickly resolve suit row

SYDNEY: Swimming's world governing body FINA should make a quick and binding decision on the eligibility of swimsuits, Australia's head coach Alan Thompson has said.

Thompson has been invited to address FINA, as a representative of world coaches, when they meet at their headquarters in Switzerland on Monday to discuss the bodysuits.

Thompson said the uncertainty and ongoing speculation about the suits was becoming an unwanted distraction for the swimmers.
