DORCHESTER'S Aaron Cook will not go to the Olympic Games after the British Olympic Association ratified Lutalo Muhammad's nomination for London 2012 after a review of the selection procedure.
However, the world number one in the under-80kg division is already exploring legal avenues to challenge the decision by Great Britain Taekwondo to put forward Muhammad as their chosen selection.
After two days considering the selection process, the BOA's Olympic qualification standards (OQS) panel decided to ratify Muhammad's nomination.
"The decision by the British Olympic Association OQS panel to ratify the nomination was unanimous," said a BOA statement.
