The Court of Arbitration for Sport cleared the gold medallist from the team event to skate in her next Olympic event starting today despite the doping charge against her, which has rocked the world of figure skating.
CAS upheld an earlier decision by the Russian Anti-Doping Agency to lift a provisional ban on Valieva, after she had tested positive on Dec. 25 for a banned substance.
No medals will be awarded in either the team event won by the Russian Olympic Committee or the individual women's event starting on Tuesday should Valieva finish in the top three, the IOC said.
