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)

Also, it's not like they don't make the exact same argument even if the trans woman in question didn't go through a male puberty and was on blockers and then hormones from their teenage years. All that does is force them to move the goalposts on their anti-trans arguments.
The other hypocricy about "moving goal posts" is that they allow trans women to compete for money in all other disc golf events, but just not the "Pro Tour" majors.
