Russia's int'l sporting ban halved to 2 years, country to still miss next 2 Olympics
Russia has had a four-year ban from international sports events halved to two years by Court of Arbitration for Sport. The ban still covers events including the next editions of Summer and Winter Olympics. Russia was handed a four-year ban in December 2019 after allegations that falsified lab data was sent to WADA investigators by the Russian Anti-Doping Agency (RUSADA).
