Transgender sports: Desantis declares new winner after transgender swimmer places first | LiveNOW from FOX

In a proclamation, Gov. Ron DeSantis declared a Sarasota woman to be the "real" winner of a 500-meter freestyle event held last week. The top spot in the NCAA Division I swimming event went to University of Pennsylvania swimmer Lia Thomas, who was deemed the first known transgender woman to win the title. However, on Tuesday, the Florida governor said the winner should have been Sarasota-native Emma Weyant, who finished second and attends the University of Virginia.
