Golfer Hailey Davidson is seeking to become the first transgender woman to earn a Ladies Professional Golf Association tour card, after playing two strong rounds at the LPGA Qualifying School in Palm Springs.
Davidson, who was born in Scotland but now lives in Florida, shot a 70 in the first round on Thursday, followed by a 76 the following day.
According to current LPGA rules, any player who shoots under 88 all three rounds will earn a 2023 Epson Tour Status, which is the official qualifying tour for the association.
The top hundreds players of the qualifying rounds will move to Stage II in October.
