Boxer Imane Khelif of Algeria clinched a medal at the Paris Olympics following days of sharp scrutiny and online abuse as misconceptions about her gender have exploded into a larger clash about identity in sports.
Katie Ledecky swam the fastest time in Friday morning's heats, advancing to the finals in the women's 800 Meter FreestyleKhelif defeated Anna Luca Hamori of Hungary 5:0 in the quarterfinals of the women's 66-kilogram bout.
The unusual ending became a sharp wedge to drive into an already prominent divide over gender identity and regulations in sports, drawing comments from the likes of former U.S. President Donald Trump, "Harry Potter" writer J.K. Rowling and others falsely claiming Khelif was a man or transgender. Both had competed in IBA events for several years without problems, and the Russian-dominated body - which has faced years of clashes with the IOC over judging scandals, leadership decisions and financial issues - has refused to provide any information about the tests, underscoring its lack of transparency in nearly every aspect of its dealings, particularly in recent years.

Khelif will clinch at least a bronze medal in her second Olympics after failing to medal at the Tokyo Games held in 2021. Amid the scrutiny, both Khelif and Lin have received only cheers from the crowds at North Paris Arena.
