World champ among 4 Russian鈥榣ifters banned
Print Edition
FOUR Russian weightlifters, including a world-record holder, have been banned for doping.
The Russian Weightlifting Federation said yesterday Alexei Lovchev, who won a world title in Houston in November with a world record total over two lifts, has been banned for four years after a positive test for the banned substance ipamorelin. His gold medal from the worlds is set to go to Lasha Talakhadze of Georgia, while his world record will be nullified, restoring a 16-year-old mark set by Iranian lifter Hossein Rezazadeh. Russian weightlifters Alexei Kosov and Olga Afanasyeva were also banned for four years, while former European champion Olga Zubova was given an eight-year ban for a second offense. All three tested positive for steroids. Zubova, who failed a test at the 2013 worlds, had been competing again at the worlds only one month after her last doping ban expired.
