💨 Abstract

Caster Semenya, a South African athlete, won the 800m final at the 2009 World Championships, sparking controversy and subsequent gender testing. She was born with differences of sexual development (DSD), leading to a years-long legal battle over her eligibility to compete. Despite winning multiple gold medals, she faced bans and legal challenges from World Athletics, arguing that her natural testosterone levels gave her an unfair advantage.
