She/He is a Hermaphrodite
It has just been revealed that test results have shown that World 800m Champion Caster Semenya is a ‘ Hermaphrodite’. It is just the latest twist in the ongoing gender row, which surfaced after the 18 year old’s success in Berlin.
As reported from SkyNews, the test results have shown Semenya to have both male and female sex organs, and no womb or ovaries. Athletics authorities are now set to wait on full test results, before deciding on action.
As a result of the new claims, it is still a possibility that Semenya could be stripped of her 800m title. However, if it is deemed that the teenager has a medical condition which has caused the excessive testosterone naturally, then the IAAF would likely allow her to keep her medal.
