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. ‘Male advantage in driving estimated at around 30 per cent’
“We all know there can be no equal athletic opportunity for women without a separate female golf category,” the letter, as reported by sports website OutKick, read. “Yet, the Ladies Professional Golf Association continues to propagate a policy that allows male athletes to qualify, compete and win in women’s golf, even as several national and international governing bodies of sport and state legislatures increasingly reject these unjust and inequitable policies that harm female athletes.
“LPGA policy does not explicitly state eligibility based on sex. It is essential for the integrity and fairness of women’s golf to have a clear and consistent participation policy in place based on a player’s immutable sex.

How many of these people will still vote for the left in the election?
A whole bunch, I bet.
They just want an exception to their “beliefs” in this instance.
Don’t be fooled.
Application:
Q1: Circle the most correct statement; Were you born with a uterus or a prostate?
Q2; Can we have a qualified physician confirm that prior to any event?
Stop voting Democrat... Or it will just get worse and worse and worse... Before you know it, there will be only two sports... Those played by men and those played by men dressed as women.
make it use the men’s tees...
The froggies are starting to notice that the water is boiling.
Never heard of a woman trying to compete against a male.
IIRC, Biden - during his first term with bo - was approached a woman who whined about her mentally ill son wanting to be a girl and being discriminated against. Bidet told her that was one of the most important things to him o work on.
I have never forgotten that and how shameful it is that that garbage and abortion is what the left is focused on, getting millions to believe that is the most important thing in America.
Most of them...
That's the problem right there.
Because being able to kill their babies (Moloch anyone?) is more important to them than you know actually competing and raising kids...
“LPGA policy does not explicitly state eligibility based on sex.
Any time an individual female...or a team of females...is called upon to compete against a guy in a skirt she/they should just refuse.
It stands for lesbian.
The shameful part is that even if we forget the cheaing numbers...more than 40 or 45 percent are voting for them anyway!!
And letting the one thing that NO STATE has ever survived happen...losing control of the borders.
Usually it’s because a state’s military can no longer hold the opponent at bay...in our case it’s...just because.
The horrifying part is that nobody said they couldn’t kill their babies!
It’s horrifying but true. SCOTUS did not ban abortion.
they just tossed it to the states.
But goodness gracious, now a woman might have to make a day trip to the nearest state that is easy to get an abortion in.
But amazon and other companies said they will pay for any travel, so even if you have to go a larger distance, you’re covered.
What they want is an unconditional right to kill their babies up until birth.
I think some would want that right until the child is maybe 5 or 6.
That’s only half jesting on my part, that last comment.
Ladies - if the golfer present has a couple of balls that aren’t in a sleeve, he ain’t a lady. Just sayin’
I'd prefer that they demand that their "league" or group or association that they play in clearly bars non-women from participating - that would end all this crap. If their league doesn't they walk and that kills the league. Thus, the league has incentive.
LOL! They need to change their name.

There is no such thing as “transgender” anywhere on the face of this Earth.
It is delusional to think it exists
