Raven Saunders, the non-binary American shot putter known for their colorful and elaborate masks, qualified for the finals at the Paris 2024 Olympics wearing their 'Hulk' regalia. Saunders, who uses they/them pronouns, has faced considerable challenges, including the death of their mother shortly after winning silver at the Tokyo Olympics and an 18-month suspension for doping rule violations. Despite these setbacks, Saunders has maintained a positive mindset, aiming to inspire others with their resilience and unique style. A gender controversy arose when BBC commentator Steve Backley misgendered Saunders during the live broadcast, prompting his co-host Jazmin Sawyers to correct him. The incident sparked a social media debate about gender identity in sports. Saunders continues to be a vocal advocate for oppressed communities, symbolized by their 'X' gesture during the Tokyo medal ceremony.
