Australia to review swim disappointment

Australia will review the disappointing performance of its much-heralded swimming team at the London Olympics, officials said on Monday, as they acknowledged the world had "lifted the bar".

Australia won one gold medal, six silver and three bronze in the pool in London - their lowest tally since Barcelona in 1992. They were also without an individual gold medalist for the first time since the 1976 Montreal Games.

The sole gold came in the women's 4x100m freestyle relay.
