Olympic boxing champion Imane Khelif will miss the Eindhoven Box Cup due to World Boxing's new mandatory sex testing policy, which specifically mentioned her. Khelif, who won gold at the Paris Olympics amidst eligibility scrutiny, did not register in time after the policy's announcement. Eindhoven's mayor criticized the policy, calling for Khelif's inclusion. World Boxing's president apologized for singling her out, but the decision has sparked controversy regarding her participation in future events, including the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics.
