IOC defends position as second boxer who failed eligibility test prepares to fight
Показать описание
The International Olympic Committee has defended its position as a second boxer who previously failed a gender eligibility test prepares to compete on Friday.
Taiwan's double world champion Lin Yu-ting is scheduled to compete on Friday at 2.30pm (UK time) against Sitora Turdibekova of Uzbekistan less than 24 hours after Algeria's Imane Khelif won her opening Olympic bout in just 46 seconds against Italian Angela Carini.
Lin lost her bronze medal at the 2023 World Championships after she failed to meet the International Boxing Association's (IBA) unspecified eligibility criteria. Khelif was also disqualified hours before her gold medal bout at the same competition.
