><> This isn't about "fairness" or those poor starving PGA men, this is about how a "girl" came to your playground and took her turn on the slide.
Well boo hoo. <><
And BRAVO!!! I can't add a thing...
I just don't get why the emotional debate. She's playing by the same rules as the men, from the same tees. The general rule in sports that have classes based on physical characteristics is that it's OK to play up in class but not OK to play down. Having a middleweight box a heavyweight in the heavyweight class would not change the level of competition, but having a heavyweight box in the middleweight class would completely change the competition. So, to me the idea that allowing a woman to play in a mens tournament is a precedent for letting men play in womens tournaments is just nutty.
I think Annika only wants to play a mens tournament to get a gauge on just how good is she. If she decided to try to join the mens tour (which I doubt) then she'd have to go through to regular qualification process.
