The World Anti-Doping Agency has referred the case of teenage figure skater Kamila Valieva to the Court of Arbitration for Sport.<\/span><\/p>\n

Wada said the decision was “wrong under the terms of the World Anti-Doping Code”.<\/span><\/p>\n

It is seeking a four-year ban for the 16-year-old.<\/span><\/p>\n

Valieva, then 15, failed a drugs test in December 2021 when she tested positive for banned heart medication trimetazidine.<\/span><\/p>\n

Details of the result only surfaced after she had won gold in the team event at the Beijing Games in February 2022 – during which she became the first woman to land a quadruple jump at a Winter Olympics.<\/span><\/p>\n

She was allowed to compete in the women’s singles event after a court lifted her provisional ban.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, a number of falls and stumbles meant she dropped from first to fourth place, which saw her <\/span>leave the arena in tears<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Last month, Wada released the findings of Rusada’s doping investigation into Valieva and said it was “concerned” by the decision to clear her.<\/span><\/p>\n

“The World Anti-Doping Agency (Wada) has carefully reviewed the full reasoned decision and file related to the case of Russian Olympic Committee figure skater, Kamila Valieva,” <\/span>Wada said.<\/span>external-link<\/title><\/svg><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

“Accordingly, Wada considers the finding by the disciplinary tribunal of the Russian Anti-Doping Agency that the athlete bore ‘no fault or negligence’ to be wrong under the terms of the World Anti-Doping Code in this case and has exercised its right to lodge an appeal with the Court of Arbitration for Sport.<\/span><\/p>\n

“Within the appeal, Wada is seeking a four-year period of ineligibility and disqualification of all the athlete’s results from the date of the sample collection on 25 December 2021. <\/span><\/p>\n

“As it has sought to do throughout this process, Wada will continue to push for this matter to proceed without further undue delay.”<\/span><\/p>\n
