Sergey Shiryayev
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sergey Shiryayev (Russian: Серге́й Ширя́ев, born February 8, 1983) is a Russian cross country skier who has been competing since 2002. His best finish at the FIS Nordic World Ski Championships was 11th in the 15 km event at the 2007 event in Sapporo, but that result was declared null and void upon announcing Shiryayev's disqualification for doping on EPO at the last day of the championships on March 4, 2007. His case was heard at the FIS Council meeting in Portorož, Slovenia in May 2007, resulting in a two year suspension from the sport. Two other coaches also received sanctions from the Russian ski federation
Shiryayev has a total of five overall (four FIS) individual race victories up to 15 km in 2005 and 2006.
