SAITAMA , March 24 — The American figure skating team are still waiting for their Beijing Olympics medals over a year later and ice dancer Evan Bates said today that it hurt to miss an “irreplaceable” moment.
The International Olympic Committee decided not to award the medals until the case involving the then 15-year-old — who played a starring role for the Russian team — had been investigated.More than a year later, the matter has still not been resolved and Bates said it remained “uncharted territory for everybody”.
“The fact is we left without the medals — through no fault of our own — but I’m really proud of Team USA and the way that we’ve conducted ourselves for the last 12 months.” Valieva was informed the following day that she had tested positive in December for a banned substance.
