Russian
track and field athletes will remain banned from the Olympics following
claims the country ran a state-sponsored doping programme. The Russian
Olympic Committee (ROC) and 68 Russian athletes attempted to overturn
the suspension, implemented by the body that governs world athletics.
But the Court of Arbitration for Sport (Cas) has ruled it can stand.
A handful of Russian athletes could still compete as neutrals at the Rio Games, which start on 5 August.
