LAUSANNE, Switzerland (AP) - Usain Bolt wont be getting back his ninth Olympic gold medal. A Court of Arbitration for Sport judging panel on Thursday dismissed Jamaican sprinter Nesta Carters appeal against disqualification from the 2008 Beijing Olympics for a positive doping test discovered eight years later. Carter ran the opening leg in the 4x100-meter relay when Bolt took the baton third and helped Jamaica win in a world record of 37.10 seconds. The verdict was expected, and spoils Bolts perfect Olympic career of three gold medals in the 100, 200 and 4x100 at three consecutive games in 2008, 2012 and 2016. Carter, now 32, was also on Bolts team for three straight world championship relay gold medals, in 2011, 2013 and 2015.
