Female Disc Golf Professionals Protest Ryan Lawsuit (6/29/23)
Female Disc Golf Professionals Protest Ryan Lawsuit (6/29/23)
HELP COMPLETE THIS LIST OF PLAYERS.
The Preserve Championship in Minnesota was one of the few #DGPT events that #NatalieRyan was allowed to compete in this year. "ICONS - Independent Council on Women's Sports" sponsored this protest, and I'm curious about their financials/support base.
I haven't seen anyone post a list of ICONS-supporters, so maybe we could get one going here. As a disc golf fan, I think it's important to know where specific golfers stand on this issue.
The video linked here was led primarily by Cat and Sarah. Other than the timestamped names below, here's who I've spotted: FRONT ROW: Lisa Fajkus, Vanessa Van Dyken, Stacie (Hass) Kiefer OTHERS: Stacie Rawnsley, Nathan Queen?, Gannon Buhr, Garrett Gurthie, Nikko, Ezra Aderholt?, Robert Burridge, Austin Hannum
Previously signed "Declaration" on May 8th: Emily Beach, Deann Carey, Ruby Reyes, Evelina Salonen, Henna Bloomroos, Sarah Gilpin, Valerie Mandujano https://archive.ph/waVrH (Reddit archive)

Out of the loop: what’s going on with female disc golfers?
What I could find out: Natalie Ryan is transsexual and won many female disc golf events. Then she was banned from competing as a woman, went to court and they decided she could compete. Then the events were cancelled.
I also read some comments that said she was not a nice person at all.
The women in OPs video think it's not fair to compete against someone who went through male puberty.
I wonder why the PDGA didn’t release the survey it sent to all of its members concerning their stance on this issue?
