No easy answer in the debate that’s become too toxic to have

Saturday, March 02, 2019 – 12:00 AM

Picture this: you’re the parent of a sporting prodigy, a teenage girl who seems destined for global success. Her whole life, she has worked with obsessive dedication, placing sport above academic or professional pursuits to chase her ultimate dream: Olympic gold. When she gets there, she lines up beside a cluster of athletes with differences of sexual development (DSD), who, in a strictly biological sense, are part-male. Some were born with internal testes which, when they hit puberty, flooded their system with testosterone, giving a boost in muscular development that is unavailable to more than 99% of their female peers. The only athletes to run faster than these women are widely accepted to be dopers, meaning your daughter’s only hope of winning is to artificially boost her testosterone levels with anabolic steroids. Otherwise, she can train as hard as she wants, but she’ll never win. It won’t even be close.

Edward Osei-Nketia chasing an All Blacks jersey and father Gus Nketia’s 100m record

The son of New Zealand’s fastest man has come home to break his father’s 100m record — and to chase his All Blacks dream. Phillip Rollo reports. Speed runs in Edward Osei-Nketia‘s family. His father, Ghanaian-born Gus Nketia, broke the New Zealand 100m record after posting a blistering time of 10.11 seconds at the 1994 Commonwealth Games. But, after smashing his own personal best by running 10.30 seconds last month in a time that easily makes him the fastest schoolboy the country has ever seen, 17-year-old Osei-Nketia appears on track to better his dad’s record in the not-too-distant future.

Husband of top Commonwealth Games athlete’s sold performance drugs: Panel

In a recent order, the Anti-Doping Appeal Panel blacklisted the unidentified athlete’s husband, Puneet, and another drug supplier, Sunny Malik, based on the findings of several anti-drug government agencies.

The husband of a Commonwealth Games athlete has been blacklisted by an anti-doping panel for allegedly supplying Meldonium – a banned substance that improves endurance – to the country’s top decathlete, 25-year-old Jagtar Singh. In a recent order, the Anti-Doping Appeal Panel blacklisted the unidentified athlete’s husband, Puneet, and another drug supplier, Sunny Malik, based on the findings of several anti-drug government agencies. The order banned the two from the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in New Delhi and asked the National Anti-Doping Agency (NADA) to warn athletes about them. Also Read: Top youth athletes among 41 who fail age verification test The panel’s order was based on information provided by Jagtar, who was a member of the Indian team for the Asian Athletics Championships in 2017 before his name was withdrawn after he tested positive for Meldonium. The banned substance gained notoriety worldwide three years ago in the dope case involving tennis star Maria Sharapova. “In view of the information disclosed by the athlete, we also direct NADA to blacklist and prohibit the entry of Mr Puneet and Mr .Sunny Malik in Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, New Delhi and any other stadium/facility where national or international sporting activity takes place,” stated the order by the panel, headed by senior advocate of the Supreme Court Vibha Datta Makhija.

IOC suspends India from hosting events for declining visas to Pakistani athletes

22 February 2019 11:03 am

he International Olympic Committee (IOC) has suspended all Indian applications to host future events and urged international sports federations not to stage competitions in the country after two Pakistanis were denied visas to compete in New Delhi, Reuters said.

The denial of entry visas for two shooters due to take part in a World Cup event in New Delhi this weekend followed last week’s attack by a Pakistan-based militant group in the disputed region of Kashmir, which killed at least 40 paramilitary police.

India has accused its neighbor of not doing enough to control the militant groups responsible for the Kashmir attacks. Pakistan has denied any involvement.

The IOC said the refusal of visas for competitors went against the principles of the Olympic charter relating to discrimination and political interference from the host country.

HEATS

36 Men under 11.00 at the ACT State Champs in Canberra best field ever. Can you imagine having a +7.2 tailwind? 18 qualified through to two 9 lane A and B Finals. Interestingly there was 9 heats and only the top 2 made it through. It may have been better to do Top 16 times as athletes in slower heats made it through.

Not surprisingly Jack Hale who won the Grand Prix at Canberra the other week continued with his fine winning form a few weeks ago having won 10.23 over 17-year-old Eddie Nketia (who is competing in New Zealand this week at Porritt). Trae Williams the 2018 National Champion qualified second fastest with 10.24. Australian 200 Champion Alex Hartmann 10.28w.

Some of these guys aren’t young as well. Gary Finegan who is half Vietnamese 34 years of age 10.39 albeit +7.2 that’s the fastest he has ever run in his life under any conditions. His 100 PB is 10.58 and 10.54 windy done in the states. New Zealand’s 100 and 200m Champion Joseph Millar ran 10.64 but finished 23rd not able to make the tough top 18. 38-year-old Josh Ross didn’t show to the meet but was on the initial start list that had nearly 100 athletes.

Jennifer Suhr breaks own indoor world record in Pole Vault

Olympic pole vault champion Jenn Suhr added a centimeter to her own world indoor record* when she cleared 5.03m at the Golden Eagle Multi and Invitational in Brockport, New York state, on Saturday (30).

Her previous world indoor record of 5.02m came in Albuquerque on 2 March 2013.

Suhr jumped her opening height of 4.60m on her second attempt, 4.82m with her first jump and then cleared the world indoor record height with her third effort.

“You just don’t see people break world records at small meets,” Rick Suhr, the vaulter’s coach and husband, told local reporters. “But she’s capable of that. She’s posted big marks, just huge marks all year. That’s a huge, huge jump.”
