Make that MOST posting here do not understand the difference. I am impressed as hell with the round she played out there. But that does not mean she somehow now "belongs."

I shouldn't jump in at post #910, but isn't the question of whether or not she "belongs" decided by a year's record on the men's tour?

If she qualifies, she does belong, if she doesn't, she doesn't.

This is the central flaw in Title IX. Let all Division One "first teams" be open to men and women both, under the same rules.

Any female athlete who makes it, fine. Any who don't, no $$.

What could be more fair than that?

Under your proposal, there would be no women's scholarships in most sports since women cannot compete with men in most sports. A rather jaundiced view of "fairness" IMHO.
