Beijing - Russian teenage figure skating sensation Kamila Valieva was on Monday cleared by the Court of Arbitration for Sport to continue competing in the Beijing Olympics despite failing a doping test.


CAS said it had rejected appeals by the International Olympic Committee, the World Anti-Doping Agency, and the International Skating Union to have her suspension reinstated.
