Original: Three Russian gymnasts denied visas ahead of upcoming world championships - The Athletic
Three Russian gymnasts have been denied visas ahead of the upcoming world championships, according to The Athletic. The refusals mean the athletes will be unable to compete at the event, and they are likely to fuel fresh debate about Russian participation in international gymnastics as sanctions and travel restrictions linked to the war in Ukraine continue to affect Russian athletes across sports.
Why now: Visa denials of Russian athletes highlight ongoing restrictions on Russian sport and raise questions about fair access to international competition.
