Olympic champion runner Caster Semenya can compete without testosterone-reducing medicine while she appeals new IAAF regulations, a Swiss court says
Runner Caster Semenya will be allowed to compete without having to take testosterone-reducing medication after a Swiss court ordered the International Association of Athletics Federations to suspend implementation of new regulations while Semenya's appeal is pending.
The court ruled that the two-time Olympic 800-meter champion, the dominant force in women's middle distance running, is clear to race in events of all distances, according to a news release. Last month the IAAF -- athletics' governing body -- adopted a controversial policy which required athletes with a difference in sex development to take medication to reduce their blood testosterone levels, if they wanted to compete internationally at middle-distance events.
