The WTA has recently come out with an eligibility policy involving gender screening. Coco Gauff has now addressed it, while defending the trans community from attack.
World No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka recently gave her take on the Women's Tennis ***** ociation's new mandatory gene-testing policy for players. It is set to go into effect ahead of the 2028 Olympics.
Sabalenka was supportive of it, calling the policy fair. It is essentially a one-time gender screening which is 'based on biological ***** '. The policy is stated to want to preserve the integrity of women's tennis.
The debate over transgender athletes in sports goes well beyond tennis. And now, 22-year-old American star Coco Gauff has addressed the policy and the larger issue, weighing in on both.
