  • 6 years ago

Russian curler Alexander Krushelnitsky is facing a doping charge after winning a bronze medal. The violation has several other athletes competing at the games collectively confused. Krushelnitsky finished third in mixed doubles. His wife, Anastasia Bryzgalova, also tested positive for meldonium. Curlers were bewildered to why a curler would need a banned substance. One curler said scandals normally "don’t happen because we really don’t need it."
