A Russian, yet. Upholding a proud Russian Olympics tradition.

Russian curler Alexander Krushelnitsky is facing a doping charge after winning a bronze medal at the Pyeongchang Olympics . . .

Krushelnitsky, who finished third in mixed doubles along with his wife, Anastasia Bryzgalova, tested positive for meldonium, a banned substance that increases blood flow and improves exercise capacity, CBS News reported Monday.
