Original Note:
This post misspelled the boxer's name. https://olympics.com/en/paris-2024/athlete/yu-ting-lin_1887963 The boxer LIN Yu Ting was accused by IBA of being male but with no evidence. The accusation was deemed illegitimate by the IOC. The IOC recognized her as a female based on the test results and documents provided by the player. https://olympics.com/ioc/news/joint-paris-2024-boxing-unit-ioc-statement https://www.bbc.com/sport/olympics/articles/cq5dd2lz8y8o https://www.reuters.com/sports/olympics/iba-gender-tests-two-boxers-were-flawed-illegitimate-says-ioc-2024-08-04/
