"Kamila Valieva Receives Four-Year Doping Ban, Impacting Olympic Figure Skating"
The Court for Arbitration of Sport (CAS) has banned Russian figure skater Kamila Valieva from international competition through December 2025 after finding that she committed an anti-doping rule violation. This ruling disqualifies her from all competitions where she medaled, including the 2022 Winter Games, and may lead to a redistribution of medals. The decision sheds light on Russia's history of doping in sports and comes amid ongoing controversies surrounding Russian athletes' participation in international competitions.
