Russian figure skater Valieva banned for doping, ROC loses Olympic gold -CAS

Russian figure skater Kamila Valieva has received a four-year doping suspension, the Court of Arbitration for Sport said on Monday, effectively stripping the Russian Olympic Committee (ROC) of its gold medal in the team event from the 2022 Beijing Olympics.

"Kamila Valieva is found to have committed an anti-doping rule violation and sanctioned with a four-year period of ineligibility commencing on 25 December 2021," the Lausanne-based court said in a statement.

The court added that all competitive results achieved since that date are voided, including the gold medal she helped ROC to win in the team event at the 2022 Games.
