Due to Russia’s own doping ban, Yefimova is looking to compete as a neutral athlete. She competed as such in the 2016 Rio Games.
“Yes, long ago I made a doping violation,” she told Russia Today in December. “But there are a great number of U.S. and European athletes who have a similar situation regarding doping, and they are competing without any restrictions.
