The United Nations has released study results that say nearly 900 biological women fell short of the podium because they were defeated by trans athletes.

The study, entitled “Violence against women and girls in sport”, states that more than 600 athletes did not win medals in more than 400 competitions in 29 different sports, totaling more than 890 medals, according to information obtained until March 30.

“The replacement of the women’s sports category with a mixed category has resulted in an increasing number of female athletes missing out on opportunities, including medals, when competing against men,” the report stated.

“This is huge, especially coming from the UN…” Riley Gaines told “Fox and Friends” on Wednesday. “A girl being exploited in locker rooms, a girl being injured in her sport is too much.”

The report comes in the wake of trans golfer Hailey Davidson preparing for the second round of qualifying for her LPGA Tour card, despite a group of 275 golfers opposing the organization’s policies that allow those assigned male at birth to compete in women’s events. The LPGA’s current gender policy allows transgender golfers to participate as long as gender-affirming surgery is performed after puberty and hormone therapy requirements have been met.

In the college rankings, San Jose State University was also embroiled in its own controversy, fielding a trans player who recently hit a volleyball into the face of a biological woman.

Four opposing programs lost their games against the Spartans amid the ongoing controversy. Southern Utah, Boise State, Wyoming and Utah State have officially lost their scheduled games against San Jose State.

TRANS GOLFER DISCUSSES DECISION TO STOP COMPETING WITH BIOLOGICAL WOMEN: ‘I’M NOT A WOMAN’

San Jose State player Brooke Slusser has joined a lawsuit led by OutKick host and former college swimmer Riley Gaines against the NCAA over its policies on gender identity. Slusser joined this lawsuit because she claims she had to share the court, locker room and even a bedroom on overnight trips with her teammate Blaire Fleming, without ever being informed that Fleming was a biological male.

Gaines swam against Lia Thomas, the trans swimmer who was crowned the 2022 NCAA Division I champion.

Nicole Powers, a trans golfer, recently told OutKick that she vowed never to compete against biological women.

“I am not a woman; I’m a trans woman,” Powers said. “And it’s like this bizarre world where I’m trying to defend my reality against people who are trying to defend something that I’m saying I’m not.”

More than two dozen states have regulations regarding trans athletes competing against biological women. President Biden’s Title IX Rewrite recently gave trans athletes more protections, resulting in major backlash.
