From a business perspective, this is a nightmare scenario for the LPGA.
They are already tottering on the edge of bankruptcy. If the top golfer on the LPGA tour is a man that has had sex change surgery to become a woman, it will close the LPGA’s doors. They’ll be out of business in a year.
Women are already concerned about not getting respect as atheletes. Do you think they’ll flock to support a “women’s league” where the top competitor is a guy that has had a sex change operation? No. They won’t consider it fair this person is still endowed wit all the physical advantages men are born with (size, strength, etc...), yet gets to compete as a woman.
Men don’t watch women’s golf now.
The LPGA really has no choice but to fight this tooth and nail. The alternative is to go out of business.
The only real way to resolve these kinds of issues is to eliminate separate women’s sports. There should be golf, tennis, softball, etc. You’d think that NOW and other women’s groups would acknowledge that separate competition for women is an affront to feminism and that they would DEMAND the right to compete on an equal footing with men.
(This is really tongue in cheek... I LOVE the outfits women golfers and tennis players wear (for the most part).)
