USADA CEO: It’s nonsensical for Valieva to get four years and Russia keep Olympic bronze
Read Time:32 Second
The head of USADA called it nonsense to award team bronze to Russian figure skaters.
After the disqualification of Kamila Valiyeva, the International Skating Union (ISU) redistributed the medals as follows: USA – gold, Japan – silver, Russia – bronze.
“The Team Event is made up of all the disciplines and there is no specific Team Event rule on this issue that we are aware of, so the discipline rule should apply.
It’s nonsensical for Valieva to get four years and Russia keep Olympic bronze. The fair and just outcome is for the specific discipline rules to apply and Canada get the bronze.” – Travis Tygert said.
