The International Skating Union will decide the fate of the gold medal earned in the figure skating team event at the 2022 Olympic Games. These competitions were held in Beijing. Then Russian athlete Kamila Valieva was disqualified. Information about this decision appeared on the website of the Court of Arbitration for Sport.

On Monday, CAS announced the disqualification of Valieva for four years. Then the anti-doping rules were violated. The suspension period began on 25 December 2021.

"The consequences related to Valieva's disqualification for previous competitions, including the Beijing Winter Olympics, are outside the scope of this arbitration procedure. They will be considered by the sports organisations," the statement said.

Valieva gave a positive doping sample on the day of the Russian Championships programme. About the results of the study became known when the Russian national team with Valieva in the line-up won.

Recall, Medvedev lost to Sinner in the final of the Australian Open. Quincy Promes faces 9 years in prison for smuggling cocaine.
