Olga Vilukhina

Olga Gennadyevna Vilukhina, born on 22 March 1988 in Mezhgorye in the Bashkir ASSR of the Soviet Union, is a former Russian biathlete who raced on the World Cup circuit from the 2008-09 season. She won the sprint at the 2006 Junior World Championships, and at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi she finished second in the sprint and ran the first leg of the relay team that took silver. In December 2016 the International Biathlon Union provisionally suspended her over doping violations at those Games, and in November 2017 the IOC disqualified her, banned her for life from the Olympics and stripped her medals. On 24 September 2020 the Court of Arbitration for Sport overturned her disqualification in the individual races and restored her sprint silver medal. She announced the end of her career before the 2016-17 season, citing lack of motivation.
