As others have said, she may have simply been doping.
But who was the other woman?
Gonna say that it's just another one with a touch of the Semenyas.
Especially as Wambui translates from Swahili to English as 'Born in the spring time with a large appendage'.
Funny that your surname translates from English to every other language as "Born a ba.stard with a tiny pecker".
Word has it she was involved in a car crash and would already be missing the worlds, thus the refusal to test.
the person with the most testosterone wins.
duh.
natural, mutant, PED or whatever.
basically without PEDs, then you wait for a freak of nature, pumping out testosterone like crazy.
like a circus freak show.
then worship that freak
and give them the money and the legacy.
i mean call a spade a spade.
it's about wild hormone levels.
at the extreme end of the spectrum.
Radcliffe essentially just said on the BBC that Jackline Wambui was withdrawn from the race for similar reasons to the other XY medal stealers.
Surely she wouldn't say that if she didn't know a little bit about it.

This is also great news for Ajee Wilson.
Yep, LRC always quick to deal "great news" for their USA doper faves.
True. And if Ajee were white the same LRC would butcher her and demand she be banned.

Don't they normally test for testosterone as a part of the regular PED testing panel, or is this a separate test for testosterone only?
They do, that's why I suspect there might be more situation than we all know...
Athletics Kenya should have never let it get to this point. If these women had been tested in accordance with standard anti-doping standards prior to Doha, then someone would have been well aware of an issue, if there were one.
I wouldn't be surprised if Athletics Kenya had failed to sufficiently test these women throughout the year and they are in the same boat as the two men in the 5k. Refusal to take the testosterone test as a saving face measure for a inadequate anti-doping program.
Jackline Wambui has undergone more than 3 dope tests this season.
But she does not want to do the testosterone test. My hypothesis is that she has become paranoid. She sees herself as a woman. She hopes to get married someday. So she does not want to risk the stigma of being labeled a man. In that society, if you are a woman and are labeled by science as a man, your hopes for getting married someday are doomed. Not to mention the ridicule you would have to endure in some societies. She would rather quit the sport. If I was her, I would have the tests secretly done. Just by looking at her, I think there is a good chance she is XX
