"Speedo USA today announces the decision to end its sponsorship of Ryan Lochte," the brand announced in a statement.
"We cannot condone behavior that is counter to the values this brand has long stood for."
Lochte's apologies and clarifications weren't enough to compel Speedo into sticking with the star swimmer.
"As part of this decision, Speedo USA will donate a $50,000 portion of Lochte's fee to Save The Children, a global charity partner of Speedo USA's parent company, for children in Brazil."
Lochte's remaining sponsors include Ralph Lauren (which has said it is monitoring the situation) and Airweave.

He's literally the dumbest person I've ever heard speak. This is not surprising, and I'm kinda surprised it didn't happen soon, considering his lack of common sense.
