GENEVA (APP) - The International Olympic Committee on Sunday decided not hit Russia with a blanket for the Rio Games over state-run doping, but said each sports federation needed to establish an athlete's individual eligibility.
Federations "should carry out an individual analysis of each athlete's anti-doping record, taking into account only reliable adequate international tests, and the specificities of the athlete's sport and its rules, in order to ensure a level playing field," the IOC said in a statement.
