Winter Olympic stars Alexa Knierim and Brandon Frazier have admitted the 'moment has gone', as they continue to wait for the medals they won in Beijing nine months ago due to the doping saga surrounding Kamila Valieva. Despite competing, the Russian athlete tested positive for the banned angina drug trimetazidine from a sample taken six weeks before the Games.
At the Games, Valieva helped the Russian team win gold in the figure skating event, whilst the USA came second and Japan third. An investigation surrounding the teenage star's positive test is still ongoing, meaning the International Olympic Committee (IOC) are yet to award the competitors with their medals.
Despite winning an Olympic silver, American stars Knierim and Frazier have been unable to put one of sport's greatest awards around their necks.
