South African runner Caster Semenya is being asked to prove that she is indeed a woman after clocking the fastest time this year twice, most recently in the 800m Final at the World Championships in Berlin.
Semenya, 18, has been asked to take a gender verification test to prove that she is a woman, according to the Daily Guardian. Nick Davies, a spokesman for the International Association of Athletics Federations, said that the test was requested after a race last month when she ran the fastest 800m time (before the games in Berlin) at the African junior championships.
