In another low blow by the IAAF, they released a statement on their website outlining exactly in which events South African star Caster Semenya can compete in.
Having lost her appeal against the IAAF’s proposed female eligibility rules last week, the IAAF wrote a letter to the World Medical Association.
It reads: “In any case, it is the athlete’s right to decide whether or not to proceed with any assessment and/or treatment [to lower her testosterone level]. If she decides not to do so, she will not be entitled to compete in the female classification of any Restricted Event at an International Competition.
"However, she would still be entitled to compete at any competition that is not an International Competition: in any event, without restriction; and at International Competitions: in any discipline other than track events between 400m and a mile.
“Or in the male classification: at any competition at any level, in any discipline, without restriction; or in any ‘intersex’ [or similar] classification that the event organiser may offer at any competition at any level, in any discipline, without restriction.”
