LAWYER DENIES SEMENYA SUIT REPORTS

By David Martin, Press Association Sport

Caster Semenya's lawyers have described as "nonsense" media reports they are planning to sue the International Association of Athletics Federations and Athletics South Africa for multi-million-pound sums.

A Swedish newspaper and athletics websites reported prior to Christmas that Greg Nott, her lawyer from Dewey & LeBoeuf LLP, intended to sue the IAAF for £75million and ASA for £11million as the world 800 metres champion's gender row continues.
