ABC News: Awaiting potential ban, Russia glumly prepares for Olympics
Two-time gold medal winner at the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics, Russia's bobsledder Alexander Zubkov (L) and gold and silver medalist at the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics, Russia's cross country skier Alexander Legkov, arrive for a press conference on May 13, 2016 in Moscow. The Kremlin on May 13 dismissed claims that dozens of Russian athletes including at least 15 medallists at the 2014 Winter Olympics were part of an extensive state-run doping programme, saying the allegations, produced by former head of Russia's anti-doping laboratory, Grigory Rodchenkov, were unsubstantiated slander by a "defector".
