The International Swimming Federation (World Aquatics) has announced that Russian athletes will not participate in the February World Aquatics Championships in Doha.
The tournament will take place from February 2 to 18. He would have been the last Russian qualifier for the 2024 Paris Olympics in diving and open water swimming. The World Championships will also include competitions in swimming, water polo, synchronized swimming and high-level diving.
“There are no Russian participants (in neutral status) registered for the World Championship,” the World Aquatics press service reported.
Last December, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) announced that it would allow Russian athletes who successfully qualify for the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris to benefit from individual neutral status.
The 2024 Olympic Games will be held in Paris from July 26 to August 11.
