LAUSANNE, SWITZERLAN­D— Three more Russian bobsledder­s have been disqualifi­ed from the 2014 Olympics for doping. Alexander Kasyanov, Alexei Pushkarev and Ilyir Khuzin were banned based on evidence that Russia operated a doping program at the 2014 Sochi Games. The Russian teammates finished fourth in the four-man bobsled but had been due to move up to the bronze when the original gold medal-winning Russian sled was disqualifi­ed, also for doping offences.
