Raven Saunders, the non-binary shot put star, has successfully qualified for the finals at the Paris Olympics with a throw of 18.62 meters, showcasing their distinctive style in a black mask and sunglasses. Known for their vibrant persona inspired by the Hulk, Saunders aims to elevate the profile of shot put and encourage younger athletes to express their individuality. After a period of personal and professional challenges, including an 18-month suspension and the loss of their mother shortly after winning silver in Tokyo, Saunders is back in a 'great headspace' and determined to upgrade their medal. Their unique approach has sparked discussions about gender identity in sports, particularly after a commentator mistakenly referred to them using female pronouns during the qualification round. Despite the controversy, Saunders remains focused on their performance and the message they want to convey about self-expression in athletics. The shot put final is set for Friday, and anticipation is high for what Saunders will wear next.
