Lin Yu-ting advances to gold-medal Olympic bout, excelling amid misconceptions about her gender
Boxer Lin Yu-ting of Taiwan has advanced to the gold-medal bout in the women’s featherweight division, winning her third consecutive bout while dealing with widespread scrutiny regarding misconceptions about her gender at the Paris Olympics.
One day after welterweight Imane Khelif of Algeria reached the women's welterweight final with a third straight victory in Paris, Lin defeated Esra Yildiz Kahraman of Turkey 5:0 on Wednesday night for her third win.
Lin will fight for gold on Saturday, taking on Julia Szeremeta of Poland.
