22岁游泳运动员艾萨克·库珀在英联邦运动会期间缺席最后一晚的比赛和强制团队会议，转而在澳大利亚队总部的酒吧饮酒，随后在社交媒体上发布引起关注的内容，引发了对其职业操守的质疑[1]。库珀在Instagram上发布了"Cheers Glasgow 🍻"的帖子后删除了啤酒表情符号，改为"Peace out Glasgow"[1]。
对于缺赛原因，各方说法存在不一致。主教练罗汉·泰勒表示，库珀和队友西耶娜·图希主动要求退出个人项目以保留体力参加接力赛[1]。然而，库珀官方Facebook页面声称他因脊椎骨折诊断而退出100米仰泳决赛[1]。库珀已自愿从队伍领导小组退出[1]。此外，库珀四年前因滥用处方药曾被遣送回国，当时他将安眠药分发给队友[1]。
Australian swimmer Isaac Cooper, 22, sparked controversy during the Commonwealth Games by missing the final night of competition and a mandatory team meeting while drinking at a bar at the Australian team headquarters in Glasgow[1]. Cooper subsequently posted to Instagram with a beer emoji, later deleting the emoji and replacing "Cheers Glasgow 🍻" with "Peace out Glasgow"[1].
Head coach Rohan Taylor offered a vague explanation for Cooper's absence, claiming that Cooper and teammate Sienna Tuhey requested to withdraw from individual events to conserve energy for relay races[1]. However, this account conflicted with Cooper's official Facebook page, which stated he had withdrawn from the 100-meter backstroke final due to a spinal fracture diagnosis[1]. Cooper has voluntarily stepped down from the team leadership group[1]. The swimmer recently ended a relationship with Olympic coach Ash Delaney and is competing in the Pan Pacific Championships in the United States[1]. This incident follows Cooper's disciplinary history, including a repatriation four years ago for prescription drug misuse, during which he distributed sleeping pills to teammates[1].
