Biography
Legkov participated in three Winter Olympic Games (2006, 2010, 2014).{{cite Sports-Reference |url=https://www.sports-reference.com/olympics/athletes/le/aleksandr-legkov-1.html |title=Alexander Legkov |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200417192124/https://www.sports-reference.com/olympics/athletes/le/aleksandr-legkov-1.html |archive-date=2020-04-17 |url-status=dead}} He finished fourth after a strong final push to catch then-leader Johan Olsson of Sweden at the 2010 Winter Olympics' 30 km double pursuit. Olsson finished in third place with Legkov 1.2 seconds behind. Legkov's next best result was eight in the 4 × 10 km relay at the 2010 Games in Vancouver.
In 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi Legkov won the gold medal in the 50 km freestyle, and the silver medal in the 4 × 10 km relay.
Legkov was second behind Germany's Tobias Angerer in the 2006–07 World Cup.
He earned a silver in the 4 × 10 km relay and finished twice in sixth place (15 km, 15 km + 15 km double pursuit) at the FIS Nordic World Ski Championship in Sapporo in 2007.
Alexander Legkov was Total winner of Tour de Ski 2012–13 when he defeated Dario Cologna, Maxim Vylegzhanin and Petter Northug racing up Alpe Cermis on 6 January 2013.{{cite web |url=http://www.fiscrosscountry.com/news/legkov-dominates-alpe-cermis-win-tour-ski-updated,3558.html |title=Viessmann FIS World Cup Cross-Country - Legkov dominates on Alpe Cermis to win Tour de Ski - Updated |website=www.fiscrosscountry.com |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130108115521/http://www.fiscrosscountry.com/news/legkov-dominates-alpe-cermis-win-tour-ski-updated,3558.html |archive-date=2013-01-08}}

=Doping case=
In December 2016, the International Ski Federation provisionally suspended six Russian cross-country skiers linked to doping violations during the 2014 Winter Olympics, including Legkov.{{Cite web|url=https://skitrax.com/alexander-legkov-headlines-6-russian-xc-skiers-and-2-biathletes-provisionally-suspended/|title=Six Russian XC Skiers and Two Biathletes Provisionally Suspended due to McLaren Report UPDATED|date=23 December 2016|website=SkiTrax|accessdate=15 August 2023}} In November 2017, Legkov was disqualified for doping offences by the International Olympic Committee, and his 2014 Olympic results were annulled.{{cite news |url= https://stillmed.olympic.org/media/Document%20Library/OlympicOrg/IOC/Who-We-Are/Commissions/Disciplinary-Commission/2017/SML-006-Decision-Alexander-LEGKOV.pdf |title= Decision of the IOC Disciplinary Commission |website= olympic.org }}{{cite news|url=https://www.sport-express.ru/skiing/news/mok-lishil-legkova-zolota-sochi-na-50-km-rossiya-teryaet-serebro-v-estafete-1329734/|title=МОК лишил Легкова золота Сочи на 50 км, Россия теряет серебро в эстафете|publisher=Sport-Express|language=ru|access-date=1 November 2017}} In February 2018, the international Court of Arbitration for Sport
reinstated Legkov's results in Sochi 2014, including two medals, and annulled disqualification imposed by IOC. CAS concluded that there were no sufficient evidence that Legkov had broken anti-doping rules.{{Cite web|url=https://www.tas-cas.org/fileadmin/user_upload/Media_Release__decision_RUS_IOC_.pdf|title=The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) delivered its decisions in the matter of 39 Russian Athletes v/ the IOC: 28 appeals upheld, 11 partially upheld|date=1 February 2018|publisher=Court of Arbitration for Sport|access-date=1 February 2018|language=en}}{{cite news|url=https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2018/feb/01/russian-doping-scandal-athletes-bans-overturned-courts-of-arbitration-for-sport-athletics/|title=Twenty-eight Russian athletes have doping bans overturned by Cas|work=The Guardian|date=1 February 2018|access-date=1 February 2018}}
On 19 January 2019 the IOC's appeal of Legkov's case was rejected by the Swiss Federal Tribunal,{{cite web |title=No Surprises – The first IOC Appeal against a CAS Award (CAS 2017/A/5379) dismissed by the Swiss Federal Tribunal |date=28 February 2019 |url=http://sportlegis.com/2019/02/28/no-surprises-the-first-ioc-appeal-against-a-cas-award-cas-2017-a-5379-dismissed-by-the-swiss-federal-tribunal/ |publisher=SportLegis |access-date=22 May 2019}} which according to the Legkov's lawyer means that he had been "finally cleared of the accusation of doping at 2014".{{cite web |title=Swiss Federal Tribunal reject IOC appeal against CAS decision to clear Legkov of doping |date=19 January 2019 |url=https://www.insidethegames.biz/articles/1074397/swiss-federal-tribunal-reject-ioc-appeal-against-cas-decision-to-clear-legkov-of-doping |publisher=Inside The Games |access-date=22 May 2019}}
