The British Olympic Association says it is investigating an alleged racist message sent by Team GB rugby sevens player Amy Wilson-Hardy.
A screengrab of what appeared to be a WhatsApp message from the 32-year-old appeared on Instagram, with the person posting it alleging racism.
Wilson-Hardy played for Team GB in their 17-7 quarter-final defeat by the United States on Monday.
She has played 15-a-side rugby for England and played for Bristol Bears, Wasps and Ealing Trailfinders in Premiership Women's Rugby.
A BOA spokesperson said: "The British Olympic Association has been made aware of an image published on a social media platform and is investigating the matter."
Wilson-Hardy also played for Team GB at Rio 2016.
