Female Belgian weightlifter says allowing New Zealand transgender athlete Laurel Hubbard to compete in the women's event at the Tokyo Olympics is "a bad joke"
She is not the first competitor to criticise the decision to allow Hubbard to compete in women's tournaments, with fellow New Zealander Tracey Lambrechs also saying it is unfair.
'I'm quite disappointed, quite disappointed for the female athlete who will lose out on that spot,' Lambrechs, who won a bronze medal for New Zealand at the 2018 Commonwealth Games, told TVNZ.
'We're all about equality for women in sport but right now that equality is being taken away from us.
'I've had female weightlifters come up to me and say, "what do we do? This isn't fair, what do we do?". Unfortunately, there's nothing we can do because every time we voice it we get told to be quiet.'
