The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) recently announced its decision to dismiss the appeal from Canadian appellants regarding the reordering of results from the figure skating team event at the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics. The controversy arose when Russian Olympic Committee (ROC) athlete Kamila Valieva tested positive for a banned substance, leading to a reshuffling of the medal standings.
Originally, the ROC had claimed the gold medal in the event, with the US and Japan securing silver and bronze, respectively. However, following Valieva's disqualification, the International Skating Union (ISU) reordered the results, awarding the US, Japan, and ROC the Olympic medals in that order, with Canada remaining in fourth place.
