“We join Spain’s Jenni Hermoso and all those working to end abuse and sexism in sports. Make this a turning point.”“Sexism is still a critical issue in sports and we hope that the Spanish authorities and the Spanish government deal with this in a manner that respects the rights of all female athletes,“ he said.
