CAPE TOWN — Olympic silver medalist Caster Semenya says she is still keen to compete in this year's Athletics World Championships but her coach says the 800m specialist might have to considering giving up on the season. The mixed messages from the Semenya camp came a week after the 22-year-old was removed from the list of elite athletes who are funded by South Africa's Olympic committee. Semenya, laid low of late by trouble with her left knee, said she had been working toward another tilt at the world title when the championships are hosted in Moscow in August. Of the funding cut: “Being in a program or not, I will still be the same athlete.” — Reuters
