Sabalenka: Transgender Athletes Have Unfair Advantage Over Cis Women

  • Aryna Sabalenka stated she has nothing against transgender women athletes but believes they possess a significant physical advantage over cis women, making competition unfair.
  • Sabalenka expressed her view that it is unjust for cis women, who train their whole lives, to compete against "biologically much stronger" individuals.
  • The WTA currently permits trans women to compete on the tour, provided they meet specific eligibility requirements.
  • Sabalenka made these comments during an interview on Piers Morgan Uncensored.
  • She also dismissed Marta Kostyuk's previous claims about testosterone levels giving other players an advantage as "excuses."

Why It Matters: Sabalenka's comments fuel the debate on fairness for cis women in sports.
