The Latest: Curler: Russian facing charge should lose medal
PYEONGCHANG, South Korea (AP) — The Latest on the Pyeongchang Olympics (all times local):
6:20 p.m.
U.S. Olympic curler Matt Hamilton says a Russian bronze medalist who is facing a doping charge should lose his medal from the Pyeongchang Games.
Hamilton played against Russia's Alexander Krushelnitsky in mixed doubles curling last week. Russian officials say he tested positive for meldonium.
Hamilton says he would feel bad if Krushelnitsky had not intentionally taken a banned substance. But Hamilton says athletes are ultimately responsible for what goes into their bodies.
