Lin Yu-Ting Gets Hero’s Welcome With F-16 Fighter Jets Escorting Aircraft With Olympic Gold-Medalist Boxer After Gender Row During Paris Olympics 2024 (Watch Video)

Lin Yu-Ting, the Taiwanese boxer who faced a gender eligibility controversy during the Olympics, received a hero’s welcome as three F-16 fighter jets escorted her flight home from the Paris Olympics 2024 on Tuesday. A video of F16 fighter jets escorting aircraft with Lin Yu-Ting and other athletes has surfaced on social media. Competing under the name Chinese Taipei, Lin dominated the women’s 57kg category, securing one of Taiwan’s seven medals – two golds and five bronzes – marking the island’s second-best Olympic performance. Lin’s gold medal victory on Sunday was particularly poignant, as she and Algerian boxer Imane Khelif endured online abuse throughout the competition. The International Boxing Association had disqualified both athletes from last year’s world championships over gender eligibility criteria, but the International Olympic Committee cleared them to compete in Paris. Boxer Lin Yu-ting Cries After Winning Gold Medal in Women's 57 Kg Boxing at Paris Olympics 2024 Amid Gender Row.
