The One with Tadd Fujikawa

The LGBT Sport Podcast

Available for over a year

Tadd Fujikawa is used to making history. In 2006 - at the age of just fifteen - the golfer became the youngest person to ever qualify for the US Open. And then a decade or so later, he came out as gay - something no male pro had ever done before. So what has life been like for Tadd in the time since he opened up publicly about his sexuality - and what has life been like since then? We've wanted to have him on the podcast for a long time - and we've finally managed to rig up the technology between Cornwall and Hawaii to make it happen. In this episode, Tadd talks openly and frankly about his journey - from first picking up a club in Hawaii to playing at the US Open to why visibility in sport is so, so important. So give it a listen! WANT TO FIND OUT MORE ABOUT OUR GUEST? @Tadd_Fujikawa WANT TO GET IN TOUCH WITH THE SHOW? @jack_murley jack.murley@bbc.co.uk
