LAUSANNE, Switzerland (AP) " Cross-country skier Therese Johaug has a court date in June for a doping case that could force her to miss the 2018 Olympics. The Court of Arbitration for Sport says it will hear the International Ski Federation's appeal to extend Johaug's 13-month ban on June 6. Johaug, a former Olympic and world champion from Norway, could not defend her overall World Cup title last season after testing positive for clostebol. A Norwegian Olympic tribunal judged she was not at significant fault. However, FIS argued that a 13-month ban is "on the low end of the range of reasonable sanctions."
