Double Olympic champion Caster Semenya can compete freely again, although only temporarily.
The Federal Supreme Court of Switzerland has ordered the IAAF to suspend its female eligibility regulations with immediate effect, her lawyers said in a statement.
This means Semenya will be able to compete in the 400m, 800m and 1,500m races while the appeal is pending.
Semenya appealed the Court of Arbitration for Sport decision to allow the IAAF to implement its female eligibility regulations, which require athletes with difference of sex development (DSD) to take medication to lower their high levels of naturally occurring testosterone.
