A third of Russia's athletes will be banned from competing at the Rio Olympics, after a state-sponsored doping scandal that has gone right to the wire of the opening day.
The International Olympic Committee says 118 of Russia's three-hundred-eighty-nine athletes will be prevented from taking part.
Two-hundred-71, or roughly 70-percent of the national team, have been cleared.
Included in the list of those who cannot compete in Rio are Moscow's guaranteed gold earners and title defenders.
The announcement comes on the eve of the opening ceremony of the Games.
