Related: About this forumRussian bronze medalist curler Alexander Krushelnitsky charged with doping
http://www.espn.com/olympics/winter18/story/_/id/22497581/russian-bronze-medalist-curler-alexander-krushelnitsky-charged-dopingThe court said Monday that it has "initiated a procedure" involving Krushelnitsky, who won bronze in the mixed doubles event along with his wife, Anastasia Bryzgalova. The court says no hearing date has been set.
IOC spokesman Mark Adams said a failed doping test by a Russian athlete could keep the country's banned team from being reinstated and marching under the national flag at the closing ceremony.
Svishchev said it was possible that an athlete's food or drink had been spiked with meldonium and suggested that rival Russian athletes or Russia's political enemies could be responsible.
