The LPGA and USGA announced a change to its gender policy Wednesday that will effectively ban transgender woman Hailey Davidson and others like her from competition.

The USGA and LPGA have announced a new gender policy, which will affect transgender golfers. Starting in 2025, the USGA is implementing a “Competitive Fairness Gender Policy,” which states that “athletes must be assigned female at birth or have transitioned to female prior to going through male puberty in order to compete.”
