The Court of Arbitration for Sport has dismissed Russian cross-country skier Alexander Bolshunov's appeal to compete in the 2026 Winter Olympics as an Individual Neutral Athlete. The decision hinges on jurisdictional limits, ending his bid to defend three gold medals from Beijing. This ruling stems from ongoing sanctions against Russian athletes due to the invasion of Ukraine.
