Florida governor Ron DeSantis has signed a proclamation recognizing runner-up Emma Weyant as the winner of a national college swimming title – in an event she lost to transgender athlete Lia Thomas.
DeSantis criticized the National Collegiate Athletic Association for allowing Thomas to compete. “The NCAA is basically taking efforts to destroy women’s athletics,” he said.
