  "account": "NAGOYA: Taiwan's Olympic champion boxer, Lin Yu-ting, is just one win away from securing a gold medal at the Asian Games after her victory on Wednesday. The 30-year-old defeated Uzbekistan's Sitora Turdibekova 5-0 in the women's 60kg class, putting her in the final. Lin expressed gratitude to the medical team for treating her cut nose sustained in the quarter-finals. She will face China's Yang Chengyu in the gold-medal match on Friday. Lin had considered retiring after the Paris Olympics but decided to continue fighting to challenge those who doubted her eligibility. Both Lin and Algeria's Imane Khelif were disqualified from the 2023 world championships due to unspecified gender eligibility tests, yet they were allowed to compete in Paris by the IOC, citing the IBA's decision as sudden and arbitrary. Both women went on to win gold medals. Lin had previously won gold in the 57kg category at the last Asian Games in Hangzhou, China, in 2023.",
  "summary": "NAGOYA: Taiwan boxer Lin Yu-ting, the Olympic champion who found herself embroiled in a major gender row at Paris 2024, guaranteed herself at least a silver medal at the Asian Games on Wednesday.",
