Don't think that's quite right - it's if their country doesn't have an National Olympic Committee (i.e. Netherlands Antilles {committee disbanded by IOC} & South Sudan {new country} at London 2012) - it's not what the athlete chooses.

Huge congratulations to BETH TWEDDLE - best routine, BRONZE Medal
