Athletistic / Figure skating. Not so long ago, 17-year-old figure skater Varvara Gorobchenko was disqualified for five years for violating anti-doping rules. Recently, this is not the first time that prohibited substances and underage skaters have been identified. This was announced by RUSADA Director General Veronika Loginova.
“We are forced to admit that we have recently faced the third case of anti-doping rule violations by underage athletes in figure skating. We have repeatedly spoken about the need to conduct large-scale educational work not only among young athletes, but also among their immediate environment,” Loginova said, according to TASS.
