LPGA and USGA Ban Transgender Golfers Who Have Undergone Male Puberty in 2025
Dec 4, 2024, 07:30 PM
The Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) has announced a significant policy update for 2025, effectively barring transgender women who have undergone male puberty, such as Hailey Davidson, from competing in its events. The new gender policy, which also applies to the USGA championships for females, mandates that only athletes assigned female at birth or those who transitioned before male puberty are eligible to compete. This decision comes after consultations with a working group that concluded the physical advantages conferred by male puberty could not be fully mitigated. The policy change has sparked a range of reactions, with some praising the move as a victory for women's sports, while others, including transgender golfer Hailey Davidson, criticized the decision for its impact on inclusivity.
