She's borderline female/male. That's been proven medically, and there remain plenty who think she has an unfair advantage over 'other' women due to her abnormal makeup.

Have people forgotten she'd done all the tests etc and been very publicly cleared to race? It was all BEHIND her, and any talk of 'he or she' in the event of winning gold would have been dismissedhttps://community.betfair.com/commonwealthgames2010/go/thread/view/114965/29309723/the-look-on-michael-johnsons-face-just-now?post_id=522905105#522905105To suggest Samenya didn't want to win gold is absurd.
