Khelif thumped the canvas in delight, relief painted across her face, she then fell into the arms of her adoring team. The tears flowed as she stumbled back to the dressing room. There would be no urge to speak to the media, but this was a moment of joy for the fighter and a ray of light amid a dark episode in the sportâs history.
After all the controversy and intense scrutiny surrounding her performances, her hopes of a gold medal are alive and well. Khelif, alongside Lin Yu-ting, was cleared to compete in womenâs boxing in Paris, despite being disqualified by the International Boxing Association (IBA) last year at the World Championships for failing to meet eligibility criteria.
And while many questions are still unanswered, as Hungaryâs International Olympic Committee (IOC) member Balazs Furjes suggested, demanding âconsequencesâ from the Paris boxing competition, this was a brief happy moment for the fighter. The North Paris Arena has been where sport and politics have met, provoking a cloud of toxicity and largely uninformed judgements across social media.
