The issue is that her exemptions and playing in men's tournaments prevents a man from earning money as a professional in his sport.

Michelle's appearance juices interest and tv ratings and makes men's golf more profitable. She is helping the sponsors and advertisers justify paying the purses and is helping mens golf and increasing the purse size available to the men.

Gee, for me, her appearance in a men's tournament would have the opposite effect.

Granted she is very young, but if she keeps missing the cut on the men's tours, it will be interesting to see if that continues.
