The World Anti-Doping Agency says it is “satisfied” with the court ruling that upholds the ban on Russian track and field athletes from the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro.
WADA had already supported the IAAF decision last month to uphold the suspension, which was first imposed in November following allegations of systematic doping in Russia.
