Credit: Reduxx Denbighshire, Wales – A female pool player took a bold stand for integrity and fair play after electing to forfeit her final against a biological male opponent. In an arguably more surprising twist, the Welsh crowd expressed their approval in a place not exactly known for conservatism and political incorrectness.
As Fox News reported, Lynne Pinches was supposed to face off against Chris “Harriet” Haynes in the final of the Women’s Champion of Champions in Denbighshire, Wales on Sunday. But she decided to walk away before the first ball had been struck instead.
Video captured from Reduxx Magazine shows Pinches going to the table where both players take lag shots to determine who would break in the first frame right before Haynes goes to sit down.
Then things take a turn. Pinches goes to the referee to inform them of her decision to quit the match rather than face her male opponent.
Pinches then walks back to her seating and packs up her belongings before exiting the arena to applause from the crowd and cheers of “yes, Lynne!.”
As the Daily Mail notes, Haynes appeared shocked by Pinches’ stand and the crowd’s reaction.
Pinches’ brother Barry went on social media to praise his sister’s audacious stance and voiced his warranted view that it was unfair for her to have to face off against a man.
Full credit and great respect to my sister Lynne Pinches yesterday for taking a stand and not playing in the biggest match of her pool playing life because she feels it’s so unfair to have to compete against a trans woman.
I completely agree with her view that it is totally unfair to expect women to compete against trans women in pool or any other sport for that matter.
Pinches’ son Tommy revealed his mom was in tears after forfeiting but was proud of her decision to put professional integrity ahead of potential glory.
Had my mum in tears a couple of weeks ago because of Ultimate Pool going back on what they said they was going to do at the end of the year with this current situation.
I know how much getting to this final means and to just concede and forfeit the title trophy prize money would not have been easy for her to do!
Stood up for what you believe in and your semi-final was your final in my honest opinion so well done on a fantastic weekend.
Despite forfeiting the final, Pinches did stay on site to pose with her runner-up trophy.

If the female athletes across the globe are willing to take the same bold stand as Pinches, woke sports leagues will have to stop placing men in female events unless they desire to go broke instead. But maybe that is exactly what they deserve.
😂🤣🤦♂️.........................
Walk away is how women take back their sports. Let the males play with themselves.
I have been told, my entire life, that women are equal.
Are you saying that I have been lied to?
In all seriousness, I don’t understand why anyone allows these freaks in.
Women:”They just want to be left alone in their bedrooms. It doesn’t effect you…”
This is the multi-iterative extension of the above.
“How is a female disadvantaged in pool or darts?”
Size can make a difference.
Yup
That's what she said.
It really isn't either conservative or politically correct, it's common sense.
“That’s what she said.”
When she refused to play?
No one questioned the idea of male leagues and female leagues before. So, why now? Because twisted individuals like to dress up like the opposite sex, play pretend and parade around demanding to be recognized for who they aren’t and be treated the same as people who don’t play pretend and don’t parade around demanding to be recognized for who they are.
Hmmm.... “opposite sex”? A term destined for the dust bin of history? On the next Maury....
I can think of a couple of ways...natural agressiveness is one. Males are much more aggressive in any endeveavor. So he's going to take more risks and get more rewards. That's built in and nothing she can do is going to train her to be like this.
I'm also thinking fine motor control is better in males which makes a huge difference.
Not to mention spatial geometric thinking which is much stronger in males than females.
This is why they had pool divisions in the first place.
“ Are we too stupid and weak as a culture…”
Every single day, more and more evidence accumulates that indeed we are.
Finesse in pool takes a lot of strength even if it seems to be a gentle shot. Break shots take great strength. Likewise for spin shots (english), masse (curve) and jump shots.
Yeah, not like the two MEN in the photo smirking with the fake trophy. They're not at all emotional or irrational.
I wonder if professional bowling is gonna try this. Men have a clear, obvious physical advantage. I hope the women pros don’t fall for it if it is tried.
women and men are equal in their worth but there are inequalities that differentiate them.
Women just make dumb decisions as a whole... men are pigs. Women need to acknowledge that and men pretending to be women should not be allowed to do so.
I’m fine with distinct leagues and keeping the freaks out.
I just don’t see a man having an advantage in pool or darts.
I often don’t do well in pool or bowling due to wanting balls or pins to explode, rather than the wise tactical decision.
Of course I only played either while consuming alcohol.
Sometimes balls are a disadvantage to the brain…
i know a woman who bowled a 300 and won.
this joke doesn’t work in text.
fake prize (win by default) for a fake woman- pathetic-
‘Walk away is how women take back their sports.’
walking away and not playing at all is how women take back their sports...?
