Eighteen-time Grand Slam winner and former world number one Martina Navratilova declared that the Algerian Iman Khelif should not have been allowed to compete in the women’s competition at the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris.
Earlier, The Correspondent published a medical report according to which the athlete had neither uterus nor ovaries, as well as the presence of testicles in the inguinal canal and a “micropenis” resembling an enlarged clitoris. Another test confirmed that Khelif carries a normal male karyotype of 46,XY. Following a hormonal study, the Algerian woman revealed a “typically male testosterone level” of 14.7 nmol/l, several times higher than the maximum testosterone level in women.
Is Iman still pursuing JK Rowling? Good luck with this trial. Iman may have been raised as a woman, but Iman is a biological male and should not have been allowed to compete in the boxing tournament at the Olympics.
This is something we’ve been talking about for months now. And because we called him a man, or at least a man, we were called all kinds of names, and especially women, from whom this man took medals and victories. Simply terrible,” Navratilova wrote on social media.
At the 2024 Paris Olympics, Khelif won a gold medal in the 66 kg category. After her victory, she announced that she would sue British writer JK Rowling, who had criticized Khelif’s admission to women’s competitions.
