IOC bans transgender women from LA 2028 Olympics

 The IOC will bar transgender women from women’s Olympic events starting 2028, allowing only biological females with a one-time gene test. The move aims to ensure fairness, citing physical advantages linked to male biology. Backed by president Kirsty Coventry, the policy also impacts some DSD athletes and is expected to draw criticism despite calls for uniform global rules. The IOC will bar transgender women from women’s Olympic events starting 2028, allowing only biological females with a one-time gene test.
