Budweiser will no longer sponsor Team USA athletics, ending a 32-year partnership.

Parent company Anheuser-Busch has decided not to renew its contract with the U.S. Olympic Committee. The company had been a sponsor since 1984.

An Olympics ratings dip with the 18-49 demographic is likely a reason for the move.
