Taiwanese boxer Lin Yu-Ting showcased an impressive performance in the Paris Olympics, defeating Uzbekistan’s Sitora Turdibekova with a score of 3-0. Lin, the No. 1 seed in the 57-kilogram division, used her height and reach to outmatch her opponent. Despite a controversial gender test issue that led to Lin’s disqualification from the 2023 Women’s Boxing World Championships, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) defended Lin’s participation in the Games, along with Algeria’s Imane Khelif. The IOC criticized the International Boxing Association (IBA) for their arbitrary decision to disqualify the athletes without due process. The IBA has since faced backlash for their handling of the situation. As Lin advances to face Bulgaria’s Svetlana Staneva, her remarkable performance continues to be a highlight of the Paris Olympics.
