“For the sports world this is complex,” said Nauright. “It means the most successful winter Olympic country in history will not be allowed to participate in Korea. Just last week the International Ice Hockey Federation voted to allow Russia to participate as it found no proof of hockey players doping. The IOC penalty is based on evidence from 2010 to 2015, so it’s punishing current athletes for previous offenses. The Russians have taken steps to reform RUSADA, the Russian anti-doping lab. The key question is whether there is current evidence of doping and whether this remains systemic.”
