So what's an angry prime minister who thinks his country has been discriminated against by drug tests to do? Hold his own games, of course.

On Thursday in Moscow, Putin will host Stars 2016, starring several of the banned athletes from the track and field team, according to a report from Russian news agency TASS.

Russian track-and-field athletes banned from competing in the Rio 2016 Olympics will take part in a domestic tournament organized by the All-Russian Athletics Federation (RAF), Yuri Borzakovsky, the head coach of the Russian athletics squad, told TASS. The Stars-2016 tournament will take place at the Znamensky Brothers stadium in Moscow on July 28.
