Caster Semenya competes at a Diamond League meet in Doha earlier this month. By Rick Maese Rick Maese Reporter covering a variety of subjects, including health and safety, Olympics, legal and political issues in sports Email Bio Follow May 14 at 11:17 AM Caster Semenya’s legal fight to continue her track career without the aid of testosterone-suppressing medications is not over.
“The facts before court and the outcome do not match,” Xasa said in a statement Monday, calling the “outcome inconceivable on the fact.”The IAAF commissioned a study in 2017 that found heightened testosterone levels could improve performance by 5 percent or more, and subsequently announced its rule requiring female athletes in a handful of events to lower their testosterone levels to below 5 nmol/L and maintain that reduced level continuously for at least six months before a competition.
Pielke, who served as an expert witness in the case called by Semenya’s legal team, found “significant flaws in the data used by IAAF leading to unreliable results,” according to his study, and said the IAAF “set itself up for problems by conducting research on performance effects associated with testosterone using in-house researchers.”
The ASA will also charge the CAS panel with failing to address all the “pertinent legal questions,” according to Xasa.
