Figure skater Alena Leonova believes that the Americans continue to put pressure on Kamila Valieva to reconsider the distribution of medals in the team competition at the Beijing Games. His words are quoted “Tatar information”.
“I am sure that Camila is a pure athlete. And now I am very worried and very sad about her psychological state. The whole situation depends only on the medals. Since the Americans cannot get them, they continue to put pressure on everyone, especially Kamila.
Still, Kamila’s first competitions will begin soon. And this is an extra unnecessary headache on the eve of the competition,” said Leonova.
A doping scandal broke out around Kamila Valieva during the 2022 Olympics. A banned substance was found in the sample taken by the athlete in December 2021. They wanted to disqualify him from participating in the Games. Literally a day before the start of the women’s individual competition, it was decided to admit her to the tournament.
He did not win a medal in the individual tournament, but took first place in the team championship. In case of a positive decision, the Russian team could lose its team tournament medal. New CAS hearings in the Valieva case will be held on 9 and 10 November.
Previously Tatyana Tarasova statedThat Valieva’s life was ruined.
