Laurel Hubbard, another of the “woke” crew, from New Zealand got exactly what “she” deserved. Laurel Hubbard has transitioned from male to female, and tried to win Olympic gold in weightlifting. Despite her hormones of being born male, Hubbard still flopped in epic fashion in Tokyo today, not qualifying for the medal round, and thus will NOT medal in the Tokyo Olympics.
Today must have been karma day in Tokyo between Laurel Hubbard’s epic fail and the US Women’s soccer losers.
Transgender weightlifter Laurel Hubbard made history at the Tokyo Games on Monday but failed to register a lift in the final of the women’s super-heavyweight competition.
Hubbard, 43, became the first openly transgender athlete to compete at the Olympics in a different gender category to which they were born, after representing New Zealand in the women’s +87 kg competition.
However, she suffered an early exit from the Games after registering three no lifts in the snatch.
Hubbard overbalanced on her opening weight of 120kg, taking the bar behind her shoulders. Her second effort of 125kg was ruled invalid on a 2-1 majority decision by the referees, with her third attempt also failing at the same weight.
