U.S. Olympic Committee Bans Transgender Women from Women's Sports
TL;DR
The U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Committee has updated its policies to comply with President Trump's executive order banning transgender women from competing in women's sports, implying that transgender women will no longer be eligible for women's divisions, though the policy does not explicitly mention transgender individuals. The impact on future Olympic participation remains unclear, and no openly transgender athlete has yet won an Olympic medal.
