A 12-time Olympic medalist is out of swimming competitions until at least July 2019.
Ryan Lochte has been busted by the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency.
The Olympic swimmer admits he took an intravenous infusion of what he describes as "legal vitamins".
In most cases, IVs are violations of anti-doping rules.
Lochte says this isn't the end of his career and he'll keep training throughout his suspension.
Monday's announcement marks the second time he has faced suspension in less than two years.
