Natalie Coughlin said she wouldn't trade Olympic gold for another shot at Dancing with the Stars' mirror ball trophy, however her other medals are apparently up for grabs.

"I absolutely loved this and I wish I could stay longer."
The Olympic gold medalist swimmer and her partner Alec Mazo became the seventh couple eliminated from Dancing with the Stars' ninth season during last night's live results show broadcast of the ABC reality series.
The couple was ousted during the fifth week of the competition based on a combination of their judges scores from Monday night's performance episode and home viewer votes cast immediately following the broadcast.
"This definitely doesn't feel good," she told Kimmel.
Despite being sad that her Dancing with the Stars experience is over, Coughlin said she can now focus on training for the Summer Olympics in 2012.
"That's the goal from here on out," she said. "[The Olympics] are a little bit more important to me than this and I'm looking forward to getting back to something I'm good at."
