But to be transgender you don't have to undergo the surgical procedure to change gender. A biological man can simply say he is female without any surgery and vice versa. How should those people participate in sports?

Typically, athletic associations require some period of time of hormone therapy, and possibly surgery.  Many sports have some sort of limits on testosterone levels. Allowing people to compete simply based on identity is a pretty fringe view at the moment, at least when dealing with high level competition.
