Caster Semenya has 30 days to challenge the decision to dismiss her appeal again...
CAPE TOWN - Caster Semenya has 30 days to challenge the decision to dismiss her appeal against restrictions being placed on female athletes with elevated levels of testosterone - but the timescale for choices over her career direction is far shorter.
The 28-year-old South African can appeal the CAS ruling at the Swiss Federal Tribunal within 30 days, and she might well take that option. Some observers suggest she might then contemplate taking the case to the European Court of Justice. In other words, if Semenya wants to race her preferred distances, she needs to start taking the suppressant medication right away.
But when a court challenge lifted restrictions four years ago, Semenya quickly returned to dominate the 800m event in devastating fashion. Her time of 16:05.97 in the 5000m was well outside the qualifying standard for the world championships, although she would have until Sept. 6 to cut it down to 15:22.00. Tirunesh Dibaba’s 11-year-old world record for the distance is 14:11.15.
