Boxer Lin Advances to Final Amidst Eligibility Controversy.

Taiwanese boxer Lin Yu-ting has advanced to the Olympic women's featherweight final on Saturday, despite ongoing disputes about her eligibility.

Lin Yu-ting and Imane Khelif are competing in Paris despite disqualifications from last year's World Championships due to failed gender eligibility tests by the International Boxing Association (IBA).

Lin, 28, reached the featherweight final after a unanimous decision win over Esra Yildiz Kahraman, who, like Lin's previous opponent, made an 'X' sign with her fingers after the match.

Khelif advanced to the welterweight final on Tuesday.
