Olympic chiefs open anti-doping summit in wake of Russia ban (Yahoo Sports)

Olympic leaders called for drug-testing of individual Russian and Kenyan athletes across all sports, warning Tuesday that evidence of inadequate doping controls in those countries could lead to more teams being barred from the Rio de Janeiro Games. At the same time, the international sports officials also opened the door to some Russia track and field athletes competing under their own flag – not as neutral athletes – in Rio. IOC President Thomas Bach convened a special Olympic summit to follow up on the IAAF’s decision to maintain its ban on Russia’s track team for the games and to take additional steps to ensure a ”level playing field” for all athletes in all sports in Rio.
