Nine Republican Governors Urge NCAA to 'Rewrite' Transgender Policy to Protect Female Athletes

"If you continue the NCAA's misguided policies, stories like Riley Gaines' will only become more common," the letter concludes. "Policies that allow men and women to compete against one another validate an average male athlete stealing the recognition from a truly remarkable female athlete."
