The gold taken from Russian figure skaters will be awarded to the United States on August 7 at the Games in Paris
The ceremony for awarding American and Japanese figure skaters medals for the team tournament of the 2022 Olympics will take place at the 2024 Games in Paris. This was reported by USA Today journalist Christine Brennan on the social network X.
The event is scheduled for August 7. The US team will be awarded gold medals, and the Japanese team will be awarded silver medals.
On January 30, the team tournament medals were redistributed due to the disqualification and cancellation of the results of Russian Kamila Valieva. The Russian team moved from first to third place.
On January 29, Valieva was disqualified for four years for violating anti-doping rules. The period of suspension is counted from the moment the sample is taken – December 25, 2021. The fact that traces of the banned drug trimetazidine were found in it became known after the end of the team tournament at the Beijing Games.
