Kamila Valieva has been cleared to continue to compete at the Winter Olympics in Beijing despite testing positive for the banned heart medication trimetazidine following a test during the Russian National Championships on Christmas Day.
The 15-year-old figure skater faced the prospect of becoming the youngest athlete to be banned for doping during the Olympic Games after the International Testing Agency (ITA) led an appeal against the decision by the Russian Anti-Doping Agency (RUSADA) to lift her automatic provisional suspension.
