More Russians rush to appeal Rio suspensions
Yulia Efimova on Sunday became the third Russian swimmer to challenge her Rio Olympics ban as the International Olympic Committee rejected blame for the Russia doping crisis.
A Russian wrestler, Viktor Lebidev, has also made an appeal against bans ordered over Russia's state-organized use of banned substances.
Efimova, who won the bronze medal in the 200-meter breaststroke at the 2012 London Olympics, follows Vladimir Morozov and Nikita Lobintsev in taking her case to the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
