Let’s start with this: As of right now, 15-year-old Russian figure skating sensation Kamila Valieva is eligible to participate in the 2022 Winter Olympics.
She was suspended by the Russian Anti-Doping Agency earlier this week for having a banned substance in her system during a test taken back in December that was only recently processed. However, she quickly won an appeal of that suspension.
The International Olympic Committee is now appealing that appeal, so Valieva could still possibly wind up disqualified from the Olympics prior to next week’s women’s figure skating individual competition, in which she is the significant favorite to win gold.
