So all our wailing and gnashing of teeth about discrimination based on appearance may have been based on naught...

Tests carried out before the start of the World Athletics Championships proved the 800m gold medallist had very high levels of the male hormone, according to sources close to the investigation.

It is believed this information led to the IAAF's decision to ask the South African athletics body to carry out a detailed "gender verification" test on the athlete.
Well, it was an interesting intellectual exercise nonetheless.
