“The IOC should have published a list of those who passed the test. Those who refused are automatically removed from the list. Now they are checking the next ones who replaced them. At the moment it is Kotov, Karatsev, Schneider and Kudermetova,” Tarpishchev told TASS.
Previously, the IOC allowed eight Russian tennis players to participate in the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris. However, Rublev, Khachanov, Kasatkina and Samsonova refused to participate. Instead, FTR announced Kotova, Karatseva, Kudermetov and Schneider.
