The US team should receive the gold of the 2022 Games team tournament instead of Russia, the American figure skater said
American figure skater Vincent Zhou said that the US team should receive the gold medals of the 2022 Olympics team tournament instead of the Russians because of the doping scandal of Kamila Valieva.
At the Beijing Games, the Russian team won gold in the team, the Americans took second place, and Japan closed the top 3. During the Olympics, it became known that last year’s doping test Valieva gave a positive result for a banned drug. The International Olympic Committee (IOC) announced Valieva’s results at the Games as preliminary, and the investigation into her case continues.
When will we receive the medals? We are ready to wait a week, two, half a year, four years,” Zhou said, noting that the US team should receive gold medals, not silver ones. “But it doesn’t depend on us. We must live with any outcome, even if that outcome is not what we want.
It’s sad when a doping investigation directly affects you and you can’t do anything about it. So for now, I’m happy to talk about it and excited to compete alongside all of my US teammates and athletes from around the world who deserve better competition. But we really can’t influence the result, — quotes the words of Zhou Figure Skaters Online.

Biathlete Kristina Reztsova said on Match TV that skier Alexander Bolshunov does not greet her, despite the fact that they competed together at the 2022 Olympics in Beijing.
– He doesn’t even say hello! How will he give me the phone number? He doesn’t say hello to anyone at all. I don’t deserve it. So I went to one Olympics with him. After the Games we saw each other everywhere. He doesn’t greet anyone. “He’s just such a person in life,” Reztsova said on the air of the “Biathlon with Dmitry Guberniev” program.
