Results of probe into Russian doping to be issued Monday

TORONTO (AP) — The results of the latest investigation into Russian doping will be released on Monday.

Canadian lawyer Richard McLaren will hold a news conference in Toronto to present the findings of his probe into alleged manipulation of doping samples in Russia.

McLaren was appointed by the World Anti-Doping Agency to investigate allegations of a state-backed doping conspiracy involving the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi.

Grigory Rodchenkov, the former head of Moscow's drug-testing laboratory, told the New York Times he provided Russian athletes with steroids ahead of the Olympics and helped switch tainted samples for clean ones through a concealed hole in the wall of the Sochi lab.
