The 15-year-old is the heavy favorite to win the gold medal in figure skating.
If the ROC's gold medal was invalidated, it would move the U.S. into the top position. However, experts stated that if this were to occur, the Russians would likely appeal the decision.
"Everyone is doing absolutely everything that the situation can be resolved as soon as possible," IOC spokesperson Mark Adams said. Russian officials were similarly quiet on the issue. When asked about Valieva by local reporters, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov responded,"Let's, for the sake of understanding, wait for some explanations either from our sports officials or from the IOC."
Whether or not Valieva will participate in the upcoming singles event remains unknown. She was reportedly one of four ROC skaters that was not on the ice for practice Wednesday morning, but was seen skating later that day., a co-host with DraftKings, tweeted that Russia should face consequences for allowing Valieva to use the substance.yes. that's why i've been tweeting about russia doping LOL the IOC never really punished them. it's a joke. just ban 'em. all of 'em.
