Track's governing body has results of gender tests on South African runner Caster Semenya

The IAAF has received the results of gender tests on Caster Semenya, winner of the women's 800 meter world title last month, and will meet with the South African runner before completing its report.

IAAF spokesman Nick Davies said Thursday he couldn't confirm a story in Australia's Sydney Morning Herald newspaper stating that tests show Semenya has male and female sexual organs.
"We have received the results from Germany, but they now need to be examined by a group of experts and we will not be in a position to speak to the athlete about them for at least a few weeks.

"After that, depending on the results, we will meet privately with the athlete to discuss further action."
The Australian newspaper reported in its Friday edition that medical reports on the 18 year old Semenya indicate she has no ovaries, but rather has internal male testes, which are producing large amounts of testosterone.

Davies said the newspaper's report "should be treated with caution."
After dominating her race at the world championships in Berlin last month, Semenya underwent blood and chromosome tests, as well as a gynecological examination.

The IAAF has said Semenya probably would keep her medal because the case was not related to a doping matter.
