Daegu, South Korea, Sept 4: With a shiny silver medal hanging around her neck, Caster Semenya is already looking forward to another meeting with Nelson Mandela.
The South African runner, who won the 800 meters at the 2009 world championships in Berlin, finished second Sunday in her return to the global stage after sitting out nearly an entire year as she was engulfed in a gender controversy.
Semenya says “I was doing this for him (Mandela). He is a very good man and gave me good advice.” AP
