Five Russian canoeists barred from Russian Olympics

"We are clear that if you step out of line you won't make the start line."

The International Canoe Federation has become the latest governing body to ban a number of Russian athletes from the Rio Olympics in the wake of Richard McLaren's damning report into state-sponsored doping.

The ICF ruled five sprint canoeists - Elena Aniushina, Natalia Podolskaia, Alexander Dyachenko, Andrey Kraitor and Alexey Korovashkov - ineligible to compete at the Games, but stopped short of issuing a federation-wide ban.
