Gauff Defends Trans Athletes in WTA Gene Test Debate | Fayetteville News

from Fayetteville News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

The WTA Tour’s new gene-testing policy for the 2028 Olympics, targeting the SRY gene to ensure fair competition, has sparked controversy. Coco Gauff supports the goal of fairness but strongly criticizes the tone, calling out the harmful backlash against the trans community. She urges a more thoughtful conversation, warning that the policy is being weaponized to fuel discrimination — even as similar tests already exist in other sports and human rights groups sound the alarm.
