Speaking in Geneva on Tuesday, pole vaulter and two-time Olympic gold medalist Yelena Isinbayeva maintained that she is optimistic, after making her case to the Court of Arbitration for Sport that Russian athletes should not be banned for doping and allowed to compete in the upcoming Olympic games in Rio.
After leaving the hearing, she said that her "time was unlimited. They gave enough time and heard to me very attentively." "I am an optimist. I always hope for the better and I advise everybody to do so," she added.
Secretary General of Russian Athletics Federation, Mikhail Butov, also commented on the appeal, he that "there is always hope" and stressed that "until July 21 we cannot give any comments, until the decision will be made."
The appeal was filed by the Russian Olympic Committee on behalf of 68 track-and-field athletes to the IAAF, who are suspending the All-Russian Athletic Federation and its athletes after a report commissioned by the World Anti-Doping Agency alleges to have found evidence of state-sponsered doping. The Court of Arbitration for Sport will give the final verdict on Thursday.
