The top two women from the Beijing Olympics, Anna Shcherbakova and Alexandra Trusova, won't be at the world figure skating championships this week in Montpellier, France. Neither will Kamila Valieva, the fourth-place finisher whose positive doping result casted a shadow over the entire Winter Games.
This year's International Skating Union World Figure Skating
Championships are set to start in Montpellier tomorrow and will have a
very different feel to them following the suspension of Russia
following the invasion of Ukraine.
