Gold Coast 2018 Commonwealth Games - Women's 1500m Final - Carrara Stadium - Carrara Stadium - Gold Coast, Australia - April 10, 2018. Gold medalist Caster Semenya of South Africa celebrates.

Semenya, who has endured the sex tests and sex-related regulations against her, vowed she would not give up.
