Caitlyn Jenner defended her views on transgender athletes during an appearance on Good Morning Britain, suggesting she is “out to protect women in sports.”

The former Olympic gold medallist has previously spoken out in support of a new policy that bans transgender women who have gone through male puberty from competing in swimming races.

“I’m out to protect women in sports,” she added.
