Female track star Caster Semenya has lost her appeal in court against a gender ruling that restricts the amount of testosterone female athletes can have in their bodies in order to compete
.
The Court of Arbitration for Sport ruled that although the"DSD Regulations are discriminatory" a majority of the panel also found"such discrimination is a necessary, reasonable and proportionate means of achieving the IAAF's aim of preserving the integrity of female athletics." The new regulations mean that athletes of a"difference in sexual development," or"DSD," with a high amount of testosterone in their systems will not be able to compete in female races.
