CASTER SEMENYA’S

-

legal team accused the IAAF of breaking an agreement ahead of the Court of Arbitratio­n for Sport hearing that will determine if the double Olympic champion has to take medication to continue competing. The South African, 28, is in Lausanne to challenge the IAAF’s introducti­on of revised eligibilit­y rules that set a limit on testostero­ne levels in athletes with disorders of sexual developmen­t. The case will be heard until Friday. Semenya’s lawyers reacted angrily to an IAAF press release that detailed its case and listed five experts it has called for the hearing, saying: ‘This informatio­n should not have been released.’ An IAAF spokespers­on replied: ‘The IAAF does not believe the list of witnesses it will be calling is confidenti­al, just their evidence at CAS.’
