Tatyana Kashirina, Russia’s top weightlifter, has been suspended based on anti-doping data, according to Russian news agency TASS.
Kashirina, the only Russian to earn a medal at the last world championships in 2019 (+87kg silver) and a five-time world champion, was suspended based on data from a Moscow anti-doping laboratory database of doping test results from 2012-15, according to the report.
Kashirina, who previously failed a drug test at age 15 in 2006, declined to comment, according to TASS. The International Weightlifting Federation has not responded to a request for comment.
Kashirina won an Olympic silver medal in 2012.
