NORWEGIAN curler Magnus Nedregotten, who lost out on the Olympic bronze medal to a Russian rival charged with doping, said today that he feels robbed of his moment of glory.

Nedregotten and his partner finished fourth in mixed doubles last week after losing 8-4 to Alexander Krushelnitsky and his wife Anastasia Bryzgalova. The Court of Arbitration for Sport said yesterday that Krushelnitsky had failed a doping test. Russian officials said he tested positive for meldonium, which was banned in 2016.

Nedregotten said that, if Krushelnitsky is found guilty, then “they’ve robbed us of our moment of glory, receiving our medal in the stadium.”
