TO GO WITH AFP STORY BY GABRIELLE TETRAULT-FARBER Paralympic swimmer Alexander Makarov, Russia's Paralympic national team, swims during a training session in the town of Ruza, 100 km west of Moscow, on August 18, 2016. Russian Paralympic hopeful Alexander Makarov, a 19-year-old backstroke specialist, churns through 50 laps during his morning training session outside Moscow, preparing for Games he might have to watch from home. The International Paralympic Committee's decision this month to suspend Russia over evidence of state-sponsored doping has threatened to further tarnish the country's drug-tainted reputation and see all its Paralympians sidelined from Rio. / AFP / VASILY MAXIMOV / TO GO WITH AFP STORY BY GABRIELLE TETRAULT-FARBER (Photo credit should read VASILY MAXIMOV/AFP/Getty Images)
