Brittney Griner... A Man...

Yeah, I remember something about that too. But IIRC, in that case everyone was upfront about it and nothing was hidden. If (and honestly, I think it is a big if) it was discovered Baylor was covering this up, it would be huge. Everyone who follows sports knows who Griner is (whether by name or as "that chick who can dunk").

It was a chick for GW named Kye Allums. Naturally a female, becoming a male. Waited to have the surgery so she could keep competing as a woman. There was nothing to hide - while competing as an NCAA athlete, she never did anything besides dress as a dude and ask to be referred to as a dude. Nothing that would have given her any competitive advantage.

Also if there really is a PM could I get it?

I'm not sure if it's mandatory at the Olympics; I just assumed that, unlike in NCAA college athletics, you'd have opponents loudly crying for gender tests. Demanding a gender test for a female athlete can be pretty harmful to the girl, and I think in NCAA Athletics there's common courtesy to just not bring the subject up. I can't imagine Russia would be so kind.

FWIW, it's been mandatory for nearly half a century at the Olympics. Also, IIRC, it was Western countries' suspicion of Russian "women" and those of its Eastern European allies that prompted the testing, rather than vice versa. I want to say it was swimming/diving, specifically.

The east German swim team was a sausage factory.
