The IAAF Doping Review Board has agreed that the applications of five Russian athletes have met the exceptional eligibility criteria to compete in international competition as neutral athletes in 2018 under competition Rule 22.1A(b) while the Russian national federation (RusAF) remains suspended.
In December 2017, the IAAF issued a simplified application process for 2017 Authorised Neutral Athletes to reapply for continued eligibility to compete in international competitions in 2018.
Since publication of the simplified application and updated guidelines under Rule 22.1A(b) in December, the IAAF has received more than 200 applications from Russian athletes.
A total of 72 Russian athletes have so far been declared eligible to compete as Authorised Neutral Athletes in 2018. 68 applications have been denied and 5 athletes have had their ANA status revoked. A number of further applications have been withdrawn or were submitted out of time.
The Doping Review Board is composed of Robert Hersh (chair), Sylvia Barlag and Antti Pihlakoski.
As this is an ongoing process, the IAAF will only make announcements as and when decisions are made by the Doping Review Board concerning successful applications and those athletes have been informed. 13
