Honored Coach of the Russian Federation Renat Laishev I am sure that after the decision of the International Skating Union (ISU), there is no need to change my opinion about the real winners of the team figure skating tournament at the Beijing Olympics.
On Monday, the CAS suspended Russian figure skater Kamila Valieva for four years for violating anti-doping rules. The disqualification period begins on December 25, 2021. The ISU then announced that all of the athlete’s results from the date of sample collection had been voided. This also led to a review of the results of the 2022 Olympics team tournament, where the Russian team won. First place is now awarded to the American team, the Japanese are second and the Russians receive bronze.
— My personal opinion is that our team should be considered the winner, as we thought. We have the best skaters in the world, the most wonderful. They are Olympic champions, they held this title for two years. Our skaters are the best of the best,” quotes Betonmobile Laishev.
