OP "Whoever is going to win it'll change their life."
is the sentence I hear in a coocking-contest program where dozens of people are determined to change their ordinary lifes for stressy Masterchef heaven.
Every time I hear it I wonder about this construction.
Is whoever considered as singular or plural considering the "their" later on in the sentence?
Edit S off.
