Caster Semenya loses landmark legal case against IAAF over testosterone levels
Fast Eddie:
The 800m Olympic champion will have to take medication to reduce her testosterone if she wants to run internationally at events between 400m and a mile.
Sports scientist Ross Tucker, who was part of Semenya’s team of experts at Cas last month, believes it will mean the South African will run 800m around seven seconds slower – turning her from a world beater into an also-ran at that event. However she may now decide to step up to 5,000m where the IAAF’s rules on DSD athletes do not apply.

There is no win here. But Caster can still run as female (with out drug treatment) in the 5000.

I've watched him run a bunch of times. I don't think he will do well in the 5000m.

You've watched her run, not him
