Athletistic/OI-2024. The world’s ninth-ranked tennis player, Russian Andrei Rublev, has posted a message on social media in which he criticized the scandalous fight involving an athlete with high testosterone levels in women’s boxing at the Paris Olympics.

“We fight against all forms of violence: domestic violence, violence against women, violence against children… Since I was little, I was taught to protect women. Whatever the situation, there is nothing worse for a man than physically hurting a woman.

If a man said he was a child, would he be allowed to participate in a children’s boxing tournament? I don’t understand this. I am very sorry for the Italian athlete who spent a lot of time preparing for these competitions…”, Rublev wrote.

The tennis player later deleted the message.

Algerian athlete Iman Khelif is competing in the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris. In the 1/8 finals, she met Italian Angela Carini. The fight was stopped after 46 seconds, after which Carini, unable to control her emotions, left the ring. The victory went to Iman Khelif.

  • Rublev reached the quarter-finals of the Washington tournament
