To: Your Nightmare
If Annika is successful and more women start to play in the PGA events, then this will be the worst thing for the LPGA.

Sort of like what happened to the negro baseball leagues after Jackie Robinson started playing for the Dodgers. The difference is that the negro players were better or equal to the rest of the players in the white Major Leagues. It makes the LPGA a second-class event. Only a small handful of women golfers will be considered contenders.

If the LPGA is degraded, then women's golf is degraded. The Woman Haters Club wins no matter what.

There is a difference between hating women and recognizing the difference between men and women. Here we have the hands-down best woman in the world playing flawlessly and struggling to make the cut. If you don't make the cut, you don't get payed. If she barely makes the cut on the easiest course for a woman to play in Tour, that will hardly be an incentive for other women to play. The LPGA will be just fine wether she makes the cut or not.
