What happened to transgender golfer Hailey Davidson at LPGA Qualifying? Scores and result explored

On Friday, October 25, transgender golfer Hailey Davidson carded an even-par 72 in the final round of the LPGA Qualifying. She aggregated at 2-over after four rounds and failed to advance to the final stage of qualifying.

Davidson competed at Plantation Golf and Country Club in Venice, Florida, aiming to become the first transgender golfer in history to earn an LPGA card. She had a rough start to the week, shooting 78 in the opening round. She improved her scores with a 69 and 71 in the next two rounds, but the final round 72 ended her qualifying journey.

In the final round of the LPGA Qualifying, Hailey Davidson recorded four birdies, but four bogeys offset her scorecard. However, she secured limited membership on the Epson Tour for next season after finishing inside the top 80 among the non-qualified players.

Davidson will be in Category 1 on the Epson Tour Priority List for the upcoming season, becoming only the second transgender golfer after Bobbi Lancaster to earn a card.
