Teen Russian Figure Skater Kamila Valieva's Doping Case Heads to Court of Arbitration for Sport
- Valieva's positive test for a banned heart medication was revealed several months after she competed for Russia in the team figure skating event at the 2022 Beijing Olympics.
- The World Anti-Doping Agency is seeking a four-year ban for Valieva and to have her disqualified from the Beijing Olympics.
- Valieva and the Russian team could be stripped of the gold medal in the team event, leaving the US team as the new gold medalists.
- The Court of Arbitration for Sport hearing will take place from Sept. 26-29 but will not be open to the public.
- The Russian national anti-doping agency is appealing for Valieva to receive only a reprimand, allowing her and the Russian team to keep their gold medals.
