This translation has been automatically generated and has not been verified for accuracy.The Court of Arbitration for Sport says Belarus sprinter Krystsina Tsimanouskaya failed in a legal action to be allowed to run in the 200 meters heats.
CAS says it denied Tsimanouskaya’s request for an interim ruling Monday morning to overturn Belarus Olympic officials’ refusal to let her race in the 200. The heats were held Monday morning and semi-finals in the evening session at the Olympic Stadium.Later Monday, Tsimanouskaya went to Poland’s embassy in Tokyo and has been given a visa to enter that country.
The American 2016 bronze medallist and her partner ousted defending champion Laura Ludwig of Germany on Tuesday and advanced to the semifinals at the Shiokaze Park venue. Ross, who also has a silver medal from London, is the last woman remaining who has reached the podium at a previous Summer Games.
