'I don't think we should use that argument... that we didn't get medals because myself and Wayde were not at the world champs,' Semenya said. Nkareng
"Other athletes from Team SA did well; they ran their best times, they jumped well. You cannot blame them for not winning medals. I think it's just that other athletes from other countries were better. Maybe it was God's plan that we don't win a medal.""We had Team SA there [in Doha].
Semenya was chuffed to see her 800m crown remain on the continent following the victory of Ugandan Halimah Nakaayi. "I was denied a chance to compete, but I would say I was present because a fellow African brought home the gold. It's on this soil. I felt like I had passed over the baton."
