Raven Saunders, an American shot putter, was misgendered by an Olympics commentator live on air amid the gender row at the Paris 2024 Games. However, the commentator was corrected by his co-host, who mentioned that Raven’s pronouns are they/them. In the now viral clip, we hear former Team Great Britain javelin thrower Steve Backley, who was commentating on the shot put event, repeatedly referring to Raven as ‘her.’ He mentioned that Raven, a colourful character, was back and that it was good to see ‘her,’ referring to Raven’s full face mask and sunglasses. His co-host, though, quickly rectified the faux pas, reminding him that Raven identifies as non-binary and their preferred pronouns are they/them. Raven Saunders the 'Masked' Shot Putter From USA Who Won Silver in Tokyo, Qualifies for Final at Paris Olympics 2024.
