After their week in the pool, Olympic swimmers have hit a club in London to celebrate.

The US swimmers were the first to arrive with Michael Phelps, who has since stepped down from competitive swimming, being joined by his girlfriend Megan Rossee and Ryan Lochte posing with a swimsuit model.

Tyler Clary, who won the 200 metres backstroke race reflected on the event which saw his compatriot Ryan Lochte lose out, finishing in bronze position instead.

"I wasn't surprised that Ryan was ahead of me," Clary said. "The fact that Ryan was ahead of me didn't change my race strategy at all. I executed it as I intended and it so happened that I got my hand on the wall first."

Double bronze medallist Rebecca Adlington was also there, representing Team GB.
