Semenya news conference cancelled
Organisers have cancelled a news conference with Caster Semenya, the world 800-metre champion at the centre of a gender dispute.
Semenya's advisers released a statement on Thursday, hours before the planned briefing, saying the Johannesburg news conference had been called off. It did not give reasons for the cancellation.
On Wednesday, the advisers said the news conference would address the "outcomes" of the dispute over Semenya's gender verification tests.
But the International Association of Athletics Federations told The Associated Press on Thursday that the "procedure has still not been completed and must therefore remain confidential."
