What Happened

Taiwan's Lin Yu-ting won bronze at the Asian Boxing Elite Championships in Mongolia, her first competition since gender-eligibility disputes at the 2024 Paris Olympics. The 30-year-old competed in the 60kg division after winning Olympic gold at 57kg. She lost to North Korea's Won Un Gyong in the semifinals.
