However, Russian news outlets, including the state agency <em>TASS<\/em>, reported today that the diver had missed three anti-doping controls in a 12-month period. That had triggered an 18-month suspension under <strong>World Anti-Doping Agency<\/strong>\u00a0(WADA) rules, wrote TASS, citing the <strong>Russian Diving Federation<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The doping case reports on the website of FINA, the international federation, make no mention of any case involving <strong>Zakharov, winner of\u00a0seven world-championships medals on the springboard and\u00a0<\/strong><strong>10 European titles between 2011 and 2017.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Zakharov, who claimed 15 international titles &#8211; including Olympic, World, European and Universiade crowns &#8211; for Russia atop 33 podium places between 2010 and 2018,\u00a0responded to national media reports with the following note on his <em>Instagram<\/em> page.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI have never used doping &#8230; and I will never do it!
