For a decade the IAAF has tried to slow me down, but this has actually made me stronger

". The decision of the CAS will not hold me back," she said in a statement released by her legal team.

The double Olympic champion, went to court to fight rules imposed by the International Association of Athletics Federations that compel"hyperandrogenic" athletes -- or those with"differences of sexual development" -- to lower their testosterone levels if they wish to compete as women. The statement said she was"pleased" to note that the three judges admitted that the IAAF's regulations are"discriminatory against certain women".
