Hundreds of female golfers have complained about the participation of Scottish-born transgender player Hailey Davidson in the penultimate stage of the LPGA Tour’s qualifying competition.
Davidson, a 31-year-old professional originally from Ayrshire but now based in Florida, has said that the intention is “to make Scotland proud” by earning a card on the women’s premier circuit.
But after progressing through August’s first stage of Q-School , the former player on a US male college team was accused of acting “unfairly”, with Amy Olson, a two-time major runner-up, railing against Davidson being allowed to compete. “These women have worked too hard and too long to have to stand by and watch a man compete for and take their spot,” she said.
It has now emerged that this view was held by many in the field, with the International Women’s Forum revealing that 275 signed a letter sent to the LPGA, the US Golf Association and the International Golf Federation, urging Davidson’s removal from the tournament.

In before someone says, “The search still works.”

Unlike high school or amateur sports where this BS is accepted, these are adult females, AND, most importantly, there is prize money at stake
A top LPGA golfer can earn $1 million, plus endorsements.
Playing against a dude could severely hurt one’s income.
If they would ALL BOYCOTT ALL THE TOURNAMENTS this shiite would stop.............
The women pick abortion over this issue and if Trump wins and then he should encourage men to continue to compete in women’s sports and eat their scholarships.
Finally, some women step forward. Trump has said he will stop this unfair tranny infiltration into women’s sports. Not sure how he can do that. Anyone?
It was only a matter of time before they hit the money sports golf and tennis.
All he can basically do is introduce a bill to Congress or issue an EO to halt any fed gov support to sports orgs that allow trannys to steal womens trophies.............
If only the PGA didn’t pull publicity stunts like letting Sorenstam and Wie play in men’s tournaments. That will come up.
Whatever he does, some judge will stop it.
“Choices have consequences”.
They should all boycott the tournament and Publicly Ask TRUMP if they can play at one of his Golf Courses without MEN trying to compete against them.
Mentally ill tough guys compete against women.
I hope the LPGA goes on strike. A man competing with women at golf is an abomination.
ps
Truth in posting, I now tee off at the women’s tees, now named the forward tees.
I’m amazed that the LPGA would allow this.
They should be sued. Now.
I’m picking up what you’re laying down.
the only way to stop this insanity is for ALL actual female athletes to go on strike and refuse to play against any fake females ... let the fakes play against other fakes then ... period ...
