Two men have been disqualified from the Two Oceans Marathon (one of South Africa's most prominent long-distance running events, held annually in Cape Town) after finishing in the top ten of the women's category using race bibs registered to female competitors. Luke Jacobs and Nic Bradfield were exposed through a combination of social media photos — Jacobs was pictured wearing a bib bearing a woman's name — and chip-timing data that revealed a mismatch between observed finishers and electronic records. The fraud displaced two legitimate women runners from the top ten, and both men now face disciplinary proceedings, while the women who provided the bibs have apologised and are set to receive two-year bans from the event.
