London — Breaking news coming out of London happening right now confirms Bahamian gold medalist Tonique Darling has been rejected by the Olympic Committee to carry the Bahamas flag at the opening ceremonies at the Games.
BP teams in London tell us the track star was disappointed upon hearing the news.
Darling, along with some 30 persons on the joyride with the 21 athletes, was listed as the chaperon for the team. However, Olympic authorities have decided only athletes can participate in the carrying of a country’s flag.
