The 2025 Official Strongman Games ended in uproar after the athlete who initially won the Women's Open title was disqualified for breaching birth-sex eligibility rules, according to an official statement from the event's organisers.
The competitor, identified as American athlete Jammie Booker, was removed from the final rankings after organisers said they discovered she was 'biologically male', triggering a wave of scrutiny, anger and calls for clearer policies across strength sports.
