Aaron Cook has given up hope of being selected for Team GB after deciding not to take his appeal for selection to the High Court.
Cook, who is world number one in the -80kg class, was overlooked in favour of Lutalo Muhammad and has since appealed numerous times to the British Olympic Association.
Despite threatening to take his appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport, Cook has now decided to admit defeat.
The 21-year-old released a statement that read: "After careful consideration over the last few weeks, and despite my representatives advising me that I still had a good chance of successfully overturning the BOA's ratification of Great Britain Taekwondo's decision not to select me for London 2012, I have decided not to take my case against the BOA to the High Court."
The London Games begin in just under a month's time on July 27.
