Russian figure skating star Kamila Valieva can compete at the Beijing Olympics, following a decision by the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
The 15-year-old helped the Russians win the team event last week - but then reports of a positive doping test for a heart medication from December emerged. The court ruled Valieva should not be provisionally suspended ahead of a full hearing into the case. She's favored to win gold at the women's individual event, which takes place tomorrow.
