What's unique, of course, is Bagger's life experience outside the lines, something she is willing to discuss.
She spoke about contemplating suicide before deciding to become a woman.
"There are so many hurdles you face, and this is an option of life. For me, it was a life-and-death thing. I couldn't go on living the way I was before," Bagger said.
She figures that at some point she might have to deal with spectators saying less-than-kind things. There might be bumps in the road, but Bagger is determined to deal with them.
And, someday, to have others focus squarely on her game.
