The Positive Impact of Supreme Court's Gender Ruling on Women's Athletics

Lord Coe, the president of World Athletics, has expressed his enthusiasm for the UK Supreme Court's ruling on the legal definition of a woman based on biological sex. He emphasizes that World Athletics has always been dedicated to safeguarding the integrity of women's sport. The introduction of a swab test for elite athletes in the women's category has been well-received. Several sports have implemented bans or eligibility criteria for transgender women in women's events. Different sports bodies have diverse approaches, and the implications for grassroots sports are being considered.
