Default This trend can't be good for women's sports.

Transsexual golfers will be allowed to play in this year's women's British Open in a policy change made by the Ladies Golf Union.

The move, announced Wednesday, comes 11 months after Danish-born Mianne Bagger became the first male-born golfer to play in a professional women's tournament.

Two points isn't much of a trend. Unless you're counting Renee Richards.

I saw the title but I didn't click on the thread. I don't follow golf so I didn't associate David Duval with the sport.
