FILE - In this Friday, Feb. 28, 2020 file photo, Yevgeny Yurchenko speaks during a news conference after being elected as the new President of the Russian Athletics Federation in Moscow, Russia. The program allowing Russian track athletes to compete internationally will be frozen because the country's federation failed to pay a fine on time, World Athletics said Thursday, July 2. The Russian track federation (RusAF) owes a $5 million fine and another $1.31 million in costs for various doping-related work and legal wrangles. RusAF president Yevgeny Yurchenko earlier told the Tass state news agency that his federation's finances were damaged by the coronavirus pandemic and that it had asked for more time to pay.
