Lynne Pinches received applause from a crowd after leaving her match against Harriet Haynes<\/h2>\n

A female pool final match in\u00a0Denbighshire, Wales,<\/a>\u00a0ended prematurely after one player reportedly forfeited because she was drawn to compete against a transgender woman.<\/p>\n

Lynne Pinches stepped away from the table to applause from spectators, who appeared to approve of her decision not to compete against Harriet Haynes.<\/p>\n

In turn, the English Pool Association\u2019s 2023 Champion of Champions Ladies winner was Haynes, who was pictured with the trophy on the\u00a0organization\u2019s website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Pinches would end up smiling brightly for her runner-up picture as well.<\/p>\n

At first, it appeared Pinches and Haynes were going to face each other, as they both hit balls to determine who would\u00a0go first in the match.<\/a><\/p>\n
