Swimmer Alain Bernard (C) of France speaks to journalists upon his arrival from Beijing at Charles-de-Gaulle Roissy airport, outside Paris, on August 25, 2008. Bernard won the men's 100m freestyle gold medal at the Beijing Olympic Games, overtaking Eamon Sullivan on the closing length to triumph over the Australian world record holder. He also helped make up for French disappointment in the 4x100m freestyle relay, in which they narrowly lost out to Michael Phelps's US squad.[Agencies]
