WADA: Russian track athletes should be independent at Games
The World Anti-Doping Agency delivered a rebuke to the International Olympic Committee on Wednesday in a statement supporting track and field's decision to bar Russian athletes from competing under their own flag at the Summer Games.
The statement, delivered by WADA president Craig Reedie, who is also an IOC member, said it supported the original move by the sport's governing body, the IAAF, that cleared the way for a limited number of Russian athletes to compete under an independent flag at the Olympics — provided they could show they've been subject to doping control outside their country.
