Aussie Olympian ravages McDonald's feast

RIO DE JANEIRO, Aug. 16 (UPI) -- Who said competitive eating wasn't an Olympic event?

Australian badminton player Sawan Serasinghe stated his case Saturday, when he posted a photo of his post-Olympic plate.

Serasinghe posted a photo to Facebook Saturday, showing off his abs, four large orders of chicken nuggets, six brownies, six large orders of french fries, a Big Mac, two McChicken's, three more hamburgers, and possibly a McFlurry.

"Wow what a week it has been in Rio! Have to say I am disappointed about the match today," Serasinghe wrote on Facebook. "We definitely had a good chance to stretch the match to three sets towards the end of the second set but couldn't close it out. We would have loved to end our first Olympic campaign with a win against a much higher ranked pair."

"Although having said that, there are lots of good things to learn from the matches in the last three days playing against more experienced pairs. Can't wait to go back home to start training and keep on improving! Just want to say thanks again to everyone back home for the on going support. Definitely motivated me to fight hard on court everyday! Now it's time to eat some junk food after months of eating clean!"

Serasinghe and Matthew Chau lost 2-0 to South Korea, 2-0 to Russia, and 2-0 to Chinese Taipei in Group A play of men's badminton doubles.

The McDonald's location in the Olympic village offers free food for athletes and coaches. After long and hectic foot traffic led to huge lines, the restaurant was forced to cap athletes to a 20-item limit per order, according to the Washington Post.
