Taiwanese boxer Lin Yu-ting, ranked third in the Elite Women 54-kg feather global standings, has faced controversy due to failing a gender eligibility test for the Paris Olympics 2024.

Lin entered the Paris Olympics as the top-seeded boxer in the 57kg featherweight category, receiving a first-round bye.

Her career highlights include gold medals at the 2017 and 2019 Asian Championships, and the 2022 World Championships.

Lin began her boxing journey in middle school in Taipei in 2008 and debuted at the Asian Championships in 2017.

At age 21, she won a gold medal at the 2017 Asian Championships in Ho Chi Minh City.

She also competed in the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, bowing out in the round of 16.

In 2023, both Lin and Imane Khelif were disqualified from the women's world championships for failing unspecified gender eligibility tests, leading to Lin being stripped of a bronze medal.
