Spitz slams FINA for putting money ahead of the athletes


AMERICAN great Mark Spitz yesterday attacked world governing body FINA for not switching the Melbourne world championships programme to morning finals to fall in line with the Beijing Olympics. 

The International Olympic Committee last October caved in to US television rights holder NBC, which had been lobbying hard for early finals to coincide with peak evening viewing hours in the United States.
