The Daily Mail – In order to ‘protect women’s sport’, transgender athletes ‘with a male sex advantage’ cannot take part in female competitions, according to ex-Olympic swimmer Sharron Davies.
The two-time Commonwealth Games gold medalist said she knows, “many other female athletes who feel the same way.” Speaking to BBC Sport, Davies, 56, added, “it is not a transphobic thing.”
The news comes as 18-time tennis Grand Slam tennis singles champion Martina Navratilova apologized for comments described as transphobic by one campaign group.
