RIO DE JANEIRO -- Yulia Efimova will be competing at the Olympics after all.In a bizarre turn to the Russian doping scandal, world swimming governing body FINA finally revealed Saturday that Efimova will indeed be taking part in the 100-meter breaststroke.The reigning world champion was listed on the start sheet in the fifth of six heats for the preliminaries Sunday. She is also expected to swim in the 200 breaststroke and, presumably, the 4x100 medley relay.The 24-year-old Efimova has been a flashpoint in the scandal because she not only served a 16-month suspension for doping, she tested positive again this year for the now-banned substance meldonium.That result was placed on hold while WADA does further studies on the drug, which was added to the banned list at the start of the year.As part of the IOCs decision not to throw the entire Russian team out of the Olympics, Efimova was initially banned along with six other Russian swimmers who either had positive tests on their record or were named in an investigation of the massive, state-sanctioned doping scheme.Now, it looks like theyll all be competing in Rio de Janeiro, though FINA has never released official confirmation.Instead, the swimmers are quietly being added to the start lists. Thats what happened Saturday, after the initial list for the womens 100 butterfly didnt include Natalia Lovtcova.The list was revised just hours before the preliminaries, adding Lovtcova to the last of six heats. She finished 26th overall and failed to advance to the semifinals.Vladimir Morozov, Nikita Lobintsev, Daria Ustinova, Mikhail Dovgalyuk and Anastasia Krapivina are also expected to compete after initially being banned from the Olympics.For an athlete thats clean, its really frustrating for me to see that, Canadian swimmer Ryan Cochrane said. Once the games are over, thats something well all look back on and (wish) was handled better throughout the quadrennial, not just before the Olympics.After the prelims of the mens 400 freestyle, Australias Mack Horton took a shot at Chinese star Sun Yang, who served a three-month suspension for using a banned stimulant in 2014.Horton was asked about a reported incident between the two at the practice pool earlier in the week. The Aussie said Sun splashed me to say hello, and I didnt respond because I dont have time for drug cheats.---Follow Paul Newberry on Twitter at www.twitter.com/pnewberry1963 .

Kyrie Irving Shoes Deals .ca looks back at the stories and moments that made the year memorable.PHOENIX -- The?Los Angeles Dodgers have been riding rookie magic all month, and they will lean on it at least one more time.?Manager Dave Roberts announced that rookie Brock Stewart will start Saturdays game against the Arizona Diamondbacks instead of Bud Norris, who was penciled in for the outing earlier in the week.The decision seemed fairly straightforward.Stewart has a 1.38 ERA over his past three appearances, while opponents are batting .191 against him. The last two of those three outings have been starts, with the right-hander giving up just one earned run in 10 combined innings.Norris, meanwhile, has just one appearance since Aug. 31, a relief outing in which he gave up two earned runs on a hit and a walk in two-thirds of an inning. His last start came at Colorado on Aug. 31, when he gave up five runs on six hits and three walks oover three innings.ddddddddddddRoberts was asked why Stewart wasnt just named the starter for Saturday in the first place.Brock has thrown the ball well his last couple of starts, and we were having him back up Clayton [Kershaw]?in New York, as well as Rich [Hill]?yesterday, and since he wasnt used in those two [games], it makes sense for us to start Brock, Roberts said.Not counting Kenta Maedas outing Friday night at Arizona, the Dodgers have used a rookie to start eight times this month alone. Those rookies are 5-1 with two no-decisions and a combined 2.76 ERA in those games.Rookies started four consecutive games Sept. 4-7 at home, with Jose De Leon, Maeda, Ross Stripling and Stewart each winning the games.?
