USA is going for gold! Michael Phelps is set to guest star in the midseason premiere of "Suits," HuffPost TV has learned.

When "Suits" returns for the second half of Season 3 in early 2014, the most decorated Olympian of all time will appear as himself. In the episode, Harvey (Gabriel Macht) will come face to face with the one sports client he could never land: Michael Phelps. The athlete makes Harvey confront their prickly past when Scottie (Abigail Spencer) tries to land him as a client.

Phelps isn't the first Olympian to visit the small screen recently; not only did Ryan Lochte score his own E! reality series, he also cameoed on "90210" and "30 Rock." Additionally, gold medal-winning gymnast Gabby Douglas made an appearance on "The Vampire Diaries," her teammate McKayla Maroney paid a visit to "Hart of Dixie," and swimmer Missy Franklin stopped by "Pretty Little Liars."

"Suits" currently airs Tuesdays at 10 p.m. ET on USA.
