28-year-old Hailey Davidson is the first ever out trans woman to win a pro golf tournament in the US after recently being crowned champion of a ladies mini-tour.
Speaking to Click Orlando, the Scottish golfer, who moved to America with her family in 1997, said her success has given her “hope”, adding: “I never thought I could play golf competitively as a trans-woman so I always thought it was golf or being myself.”Davidson is now planning to head to the Scottish Open and the Open Championship, with the hope of making “Scotland proud”.
