If you read the article you'll see that Hubbard is top 10, but not top 3 in her weight class, and in no way a favorite to win. Even her scores pre-transition wouldn't guarantee her gold at the Olympics.

Yes, comparing a 43 years old who is in no way at the peak of their physical performance to a bunch of 20s shows the degree of unfairness. And no, Hubbard doesn't need to win gold for this to become unfair.

Can you at least spare some sympathy for the young woman who's unable to compete at the Olympics because Hubbard has taken her place?
