Child skating star Kamila Valieva was yesterday making a last bid to avoid becoming the youngest athlete banned from an Olympics following her failed drug test.
Lawyers for the 15-year-old Russian prodigy were pleading her case to the International Court for the Arbitration of Sport, which is to decide her fate.
The hearing was called after it emerged Kamila had tested positive for banned heart drug trimetazidine on Christmas Day during national championships.
