Taiwanese Olympic boxer who previously failed gender test guaranteed medal after latest win

Taiwanese boxer Lin Yu-Ting, who previously failed a gender test, was guaranteed an Olympic medal from the Paris Games after the fighter defeated Bulgaria’s Svetlana Kamenova Staneva via unanimous decision in the quarterfinals.

Lin and Algerian boxer Imane Khelif have as faced scrutiny over a disqualification from the 2023 International Boxing Association (IBA) Women’s World Championship. Both will now be at least bronze medal winners as there is no other match for losing semifinalists.
