The WBO acted after Khelif’s Olympic victory when questions about her eligibility reappeared. Statements that have been making the rounds online claim that.
The organization “regretted” Khelif’s accomplishments and implied that she might have “deceived” officials, fans, and the sports world.
The WBO apparently underlined that fairness and honesty are fundamental to the sport and that they could not ignore the results pertaining to Khelif’s eligibility.
Outrage and a sharp rift between sports officials and fans have resulted from the decision. While some contend that maintaining equity in women’s sports is crucial, many have expressed concerns about privacy and the morality of gender testing in sports.
Khelif’s supporters contend that she has been unfairly singled out and is being subjected to excessive scrutiny.
