Algerian Olympic boxing champion Imane Khelif, who found herself at the center of a gender controversy during the Paris Games, is now setting her sights on a second gold medal in Los Angeles. She remains unfazed by Donald Trump’s recent policies, which have sparked further debate on transgender participation in sports.
Last month, the US president signed an executive order preventing transgender women from competing in female sports categories. Trump had previously claimed that the 25-year-old boxer had transitioned from male to female, which Khelif has strongly refuted.
