It's seriously amazing how predictable you posters are. I would really question your own existential state when your programming is this obvious.

What does that prove? That you guys suck at golf because you did not put in the time and effort to advance the skills required to excel at the game the way this girl had? Golf is not a game of strength, its a game of tempo and timing....weight has nothing to do with the quality or lack thereof of one's game skills. Distance comes from the total length of the back swing in being able to return the club face back to its original square position after allowing your back swing to generate club head speeds that can exceed 110 mph. If your timing is off just a fraction.....that fraction turns into yards off course with the flight of the ball.
Golf is a cerebral game. As a great athlete once said, "90% of this game is HALF MENTAL". Golf is like playing chess against nature. There are so many variables to consider and master to even approach being a "scratch" (PAR) golfer. 1st you must master the mechanics of the swing and engrain that swing so that it repeats automatically from muscle memory.....then you have to fight the temptation to overswing in the attempt to generate more power, you do this by relaxing your major muscles and simply allow the swing to happen. Next you must consider everything from the type of grass, the direction it is growing, the length, the hardness of the soil...is it hardpan or soft, wind speed and direction. Then you must determine what trajectory the flight of the ball takesin order to overcome and offset the wind direction and speed.....or how far the ball must run after it hits the ground...etc.,
YOUgo out onto a golf course without the proper training and practice.....and start playing golf like you are attempting to put out a bush fire....of course there are any number of "girls" that can kick the asses of many "MACHO" men that hit the 1st tee already 3 deep into a six pack.

I say this not in any way as a misogynist statement or a statement of disrespect.
I considers both human genders to be equal in worth and equally essential--if humans are in fact essential.
I sort of lean toward dogs as the more noble species, but now I'm wildly digressing.
Anyway, women have breasts, buttocks, and legs--even faces--at which men like to look.
Thus, these are the features that could sell women's sports if they are ever to become economically viable.
No point in looking for the best athletes. They won't be as good as adolescent boys anyway, never mind freakishly athletic men.
Put female athletes on the field that look good playing. They won't look like movie sex goddesses. They'll be five ten and 150 pounds.
Bur five ten and 150 pounds can be very attractive, and men and boys will enjoy watching them and rooting for them.
This is not pleasant for a progressive liberal to have to say, but unfortunately, it's true. Really good females athletes are toiling in obscurity because nobody cares. Pro sports are a display of genetic freaks who can do things we normal people can't, and the most athletically capable genetic freaks are all male. Showgirls running around and sweating is a totally different appeal that may work. I don't know, It's a thought, albeit not a particularly happy one.

Well there’s a Women’s sport far more interesting to watch than men’s volleyball.
Look the reality is that unless women support professional women’s athletics with their pocketbooks, like they do men’s sports, then there will be no equal pay.
That doesn’t mean they should just roll over and take nothing.
Women’s soccer in the USA has a legitimate point though. They’re more interesting to watch, more popular and vastly more successful then our minor league men’s team. So why shouldn’t they have comparable pay then our men’s international team? It’s not like MLS generates billions in profits. In fact MLS mostly loses money.

I like women's sports mainly because I detest sports where guys with an abnormal body type can dominate the sport.
Example: basketball. You get some Chinese abnormality that is approaching 8 feet tall and he just walks up to the basket, his teammate tosses him the ball and he reaches over and puts the ball in.
Example 2: football. Some 450# animal with an IQ in the double digits. Give him the ball and he "runs" toward the goal line, making 50 yards before 9 opponents pig-pile on top of him.
I also like women's sports because there is less contact and more actual sport.
Example: lacrosse. In the men's version they wear basically football equipment and smash into each other constantly. In the women's version it's all about passing and strategy.
