Lin Yu Ting of Chinese Taipei won the gold medal in the women's 57kg boxing final at the Paris 2024 Olympics, defeating Poland's Julia Szeremeta by unanimous decision. This victory comes amidst ongoing controversy over Lin's gender eligibility, as both she and Algerian boxer Imane Khelif faced scrutiny after being disqualified from the 2023 World Championships for allegedly failing gender tests. Despite this, the International Olympic Committee cleared them to compete, prompting protests from some female boxers who displayed 'XX' hand gestures during matches. Lin dominated the final, winning every round and embracing her opponent post-fight. IOC President Thomas Bach condemned the criticisms aimed at both boxers, labeling them as 'hate speech.' The controversy surrounding their participation raises questions about the future of boxing in the Olympics and the treatment of athletes with Differences of Sexual Development (DSD).
