CAS Overturns Provisional Suspensions of Alexandr Kudashev and Veronika Andrusenko, Cleared for Tokyo Olympics<\/strong><\/p>\n

Days after Russian swimmers\u00a0Alexandr Kudashev<\/strong> and\u00a0Veronika Andrusenko<\/strong> (formerly\u00a0Veronika Popova<\/strong>) were provisionally suspended from competition<\/a> for an unspecified duration that would have included the Tokyo Olympics, the Court of Arbitration For Sport has overturned these penalities, clearing Kudashev and Andrusenko to compete in the Tokyo Olympics. The Russian flag is banned from Tokyo as a penalty for systemic issues in the Russian anti-doping system, so Kudashev and Andrusenko will all compete as representatives of the “Russian Olympic Committee” in Tokyo.<\/p>\n

A press release from FINA announcing that the duo had been cleared did not specifiy reasons for their initial penalty, only that FINA had made the decision with input from the World Anti-Doping Agency. New FINA President\u00a0Husain Al Musallam<\/strong> lauded the CAS for making a decision quickly and not allowing the athletes’ status to be up in the air any closer to the Olympics.<\/p>\n

Andrusenko will be competing in her third Olympics after 2012 and 2016. In 2016, Andrusenko finished ninth in the 200 free and 19th in the 100 free while contributing to all three Russian relays, two of which swam in the finals. Kudashev is a first-time Olympian.<\/p>\n

Read FINA’s announcement on the overturning of the suspensions below:<\/p>\n

Two athletes that were provisionally suspended by FINA ahead of the swimming competitions of Tokyo 2020 have been cleared to compete by the Court of Arbitration in Sport. The athletes are Alexandr KUDASHEV (ROC) and Veronika ANDRUSENKO (ROC).<\/p>\n

FINA asserted ADRVs against the athletes and provisionally suspended them on the basis of evidence supplied by WADA, and stemming from WADA\u2019s examination of materials recovered from the former Moscow Anti-Doping Laboratory, including the Laboratory Information Management System. Evidentiary packages had not previously been supplied against these athletes when WADA prosecuted the strongest cases resulting from its Operation LIMS for sanctioning.<\/p>\n

\u201cFINA fully recognises CAS as the independent adjudicatory body in cases such as these. We\u2019re grateful for their quick consideration of this matter, and we will both respect and implement CAS\u2019s decision. FINA is also grateful to WADA for its diligence in bringing the Operation LIMS information to our attention. As a proud signatory of the WADA Code, we were duty-bound to follow up quickly and carefully on the material provided,<\/i>\u201d said FINA President Husain Al-Musallam. \u201cFINA remains fully committed to protecting clean athletes and promoting clean competition at Tokyo 2020, just as we do for all the events on our calendar.<\/i>\u201d<\/p>\n

FINA\u2019s out of competition testing and test distribution planning are handled by the International Testing Agency, which also handles the Tokyo 2020 anti-doping programme on behalf of the IOC. FINA is thankful for the ITA\u2019s efforts which have ensured that, despite the circumstances of the pandemic, an effective volume and targeting of out-of-competition testing has been maintained in the lead-up to the Olympic Games.<\/p>\n
