Original Note:
The IBA disqualified Imane Khelif for failing to meet unspecified "eligibility criteria." IBA's official statement on the matter does not in any way mention sex chromosomes or biological sex as part of their reasoning. The official statement also addresses her as a woman. https://www.iba.sport/news/statement-made-by-the-international-boxing-association-regarding-athletes-disqualifications-in-world-boxing-championships-2023/
