Human Rights Court Rules in Favor of Semenya in Sex Eligibility Case
The European Court of Human Rights ruled that Caster Semenya's rights to a fair hearing were violated in her legal battle over track and field's sex eligibility rules, sending her case back to Swiss courts. While she achieved a partial victory, the court upheld the rules that have effectively ended her career in 800m racing, citing issues with judicial review and jurisdiction. Semenya's case highlights ongoing debates about fairness and gender in sports.
