Vennetti's View: Kamila Valieva should not have been allowed to compete

(02/18/22 3:50am)

This past week, 15 year old Russian Olympic figure skater, Kamila Valieva, tested positive for trimetazidine, a substance prohibited by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA). She was cleared to skate by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), but there would be no ceremony held if she received a medal. This has caused a lot of controversy due to the fact that American track athlete Sha’Carri Richardson tested positive on a drug test for marijuana and was not allowed to compete in the Summer Olympics last year.
