Lin Yu-ting
Taiwanese boxer
Lin Yu-ting (Chinese: 林郁婷; pinyin: Lín Yùtíng; born 13 December 1995) is a Taiwanese amateur boxer. She has won two gold medals at the IBA World Boxing Championships, in addition to two gold medals at the Asian Games and one at the Asian Amateur Boxing Championships. She competed for Taiwan at the 2024 Summer Olympics where she defeated Julia Szeremeta of Poland in the final of the women's 57 kg category (featherweight). Lin is the first Taiwanese boxer to win an Olympic gold medal.
Background
Lin has three siblings; as a child, she and her older brother watched the anime Hajime no Ippo, which inspired her to consider boxing. Lin also learned boxing in an effort to protect her mother from domestic abuse. She began training in her first year of junior high school and was, by her second year, showing talent in the boxing ring and winning boxing competitions in Taiwan.
Lin received her bachelor's and master's degrees from the Chinese Culture University in Taiwan. She is currently a doctoral student at the Graduate Institute of Business Administration at Fu Jen Catholic University. Both universities are famous for their sports disciplines.

Why this record matters
The phrase “taiwanese boxer” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 17, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q16905504. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1995 and 2024.
The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
