Russia, figure skating and a doping scandal
Russian prodigy Kamila Valieva made figure skating history last week, becoming the first woman to land a solo quadruple jump at the Olympics.\n\nIn fact, Valieva landed two quadruple jumps as she led Russia to the women\u2019s team gold.\n\nBut just two days later, the medal ceremony for the event was suddenly delayed \u2014 and we\u2019ve since learned that Valieva tested positive for a banned heart medication in December.\n\nThe Court for Arbitration in Sport has now ruled Valieva can still compete in the women's individual event, but there will be no medal ceremony if she lands on the podium. Shortly before the ruling, we spoke to freelance journalist Gabby Paluch about how this case fits into a history of Russian doping, and about the story behind the notoriously tough coach that\u2019s both making and breaking young stars like Valieva.
