IAAF results of Caster Semenya's gender test are evidently in, but not
announced yet, though the sports body has already announced that it
won't strip the South African runner of her gold medal. But South
Africa's enthusiastic support of its controversial track star may have
come at a huge price, for her. The 800-meter world champion and gold
medalist has let herself be packaged for the red carpet...in gold
bling, stiletto heels, a low-cut cocktail dress, nail polish...and her
famed corn rows now teased into an afro.
