Credit Suisse's Olympic discus thrower looks to Rio

Abdul Buhari, a relationship manager at the Swiss bank competing at London 2012, failed to qualify for today's final despite a 60.8 metre throw in Monday's qualifying round

A tilt at Olympic gold at the Rio de Janeiro Games in four years time isn’t out of the question for Credit Suisse’s discus thrower Abdul Buhari despite his failure to qualify for today's final after a frustrating qualifying round on Monday.

The 30-year-old relationship manager, who has taken time away from the Swiss bank's London office to compete at London 2012, failed to qualify for the final of the men's event despite throwing a respectable 60.8 metres at the Olympic Stadium on Monday.
