Teenage figure skater Kamila Valieva will discover on Monday whether she can compete in the individual competition in Beijing.

The troubling doping saga continued to overshadow the action on Saturday, with the International Skating Union joining the International Testing Agency and the World Anti-Doping Agency in registering appeals against a decision by the Russian Anti-Doping Agency (RUSADA) to lift a provisional suspension and enable the 15-year-old to continue to compete.

The Court of Arbitration for Sport confirmed in a statement that the three applications will be heard by video conference in Beijing on Sunday evening, with the decision notified to the parties concerned on Monday afternoon.

It was a mixed day for Britain, with Eve Muirhead’s curling team getting their semi-final bid back on track with a 10-5 victory over previously unbeaten USA, while Lilah Fear and Lewis Gibson qualified for the ice dancing free programme in 10th.

Snowboard cross star Charlotte Bankes will leave Beijing without a medal after she teamed up with Huw Nightingale to finish fifth in the mixed event.

Stars of the day

After righting the wrongs of 16 years ago in the individual snowboard cross, Lindsey Jacobellis, 36, teamed up with fellow veteran Nick Baumgartner, 40, to win another gold in the inaugural mixed team event. Baumgartner said: “You’re never too late to take what you want from life and follow your dreams. You let yourself down if you quit too early, doesn’t matter how old you are. Our success at our age is a perfect example of that and we both hope our stories can inspire other people to go out there.”

Fail of the day

British Skeleton’s proud record at the Winter Olympics has taken a battering in Beijing. All four competitors in the men’s and women’s events have been well off the pace, with Pyeongchang bronze medallist Laura Deas only managing 19th place on Saturday.
