(Reuters) -Russian figure skater Kamila Valieva's doping case has been adjourned until November after a panel of arbitrators asked for further documentation, the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) said on Thursday.

Valieva tested positive for the banned substance trimetazidine at the Russian national championships in December 2021, but the result was only made known a day after she helped her country win the team gold at the Beijing Winter Olympics in February 2022.
