Russia's Kamila Valieva attends a
training session on February 14, 2022 prior the figure skating
event at the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games. - Russian
teenage figure skating sensation Kamila Valieva was on February
14 cleared by the Court of Arbitration for Sport to continue
competing in the Beijing Olympics despite failing a doping test.
CAS said it had rejected appeals by the International Olympic
Committee, the World Anti-Doping Agency and the International
Skating Union to have the suspension of the 15-year-old
reinstated. The prodigious Valieva, who has not been cleared of
doping, is now able to take part in the singles event that
begins on Tuesday and will be favourite to win.
