Forget the tees, one gorgeous golf swing, watched it live, what a player
Whats the point of these mixed events if not off the same tees? If we want to know who is the most accurate from 150y and in, please play a par3 course
Precisely!
You’re about as sharp as a marble.
god. I am appalled by the comments. She won by a massive gap in points. out of all the women involved, only 2 appeared in the top 30 (or 50 I don't recall exactly) which tends to show that the competition was even more advantageous to the MEN ! yes, it was a DP world tour win. Yes she outplayed the field of players present. and Yes, this is a huge success for golf.
But she played a different golf course to the men. Where is the science behind determining where the ladies tees are placed that guarantees 100% equality? There is none! So the men and women were playing with an advantage or disadvantage but no one can be sure in whose favour this advantage was. So all you can logically determine from this is this is untenable and needs to stop.
And you yourself have actually stated that it is unfair but not sure in whose favour. If something is unfair then stop doing it it’s as simple as that. If she had not won then someone would have complained that the ladies tees were to long. This is a dangerous direction for pro golf.
@@Pago77 How is "Par" and "Distance from back tees" determined to you? This is simple maths. golf is played backwards from the green/hole: Everyone is even from 100-150y. You then take the average distance from all LPGA/LET players and DP/PGA players from the tees, add that and you get the average distance. If you still think golf is only about distance ... why holes shorter are sometimes tougher than longer ones? Compare the strokes gained from the 150y distance and on the green. Pretty sure this is where Linn Grant won the tournament, not the tee shots... But yeah continue to argue that "this is not the same course cause she starts 20y from the men". I mean, everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Mine is that these types of events should be more frequent to inspire a younger generation of players to compete with equity and fun.
@@Pago77 my comment that the top 30 rankings of the tournament was filled with 28 men and 2 women which tends to show that the competition was advantageous to the men in this case. But again, it is all about average and statistics. Here the sample is too small to actually proves anything in that regards. My point is that we should hold a lot more of these events to actually optimize the distance to offer EQUITY in a sport that really is a great place to offer mixed-event.
Like I wrote before : This is a win for golf. again, in my humble opinion.
@@antoine_casanova Wrong. it shows that generally even if you give most women a huge advantage they still can't compete with men. This tournament was a farce.
How did they rig the game to favor a PC outcome?
poor coverage, v r not seeing the ball, only people
inclusive is allowing her to play, equal is playing from the same tees. she's a pro no handicap right?
This is what growing the game actually looks like.
Its not a win on the DP tour, that's so misleading. She didn't win a men's comp playing off the same tees.
It's inclusive having mixed events but they shouldn't be promoted as a real tour win.
I don't see any of the male pros complaining about this despite being the ones to lose to her. Just accept that she won and move on shalomie.
@@comfy5998 it’s not a win. The reason those men aren’t complaining is that you don’t bite the hand that feeds you. Can you imagine the blowback for them actually stating facts on this ? They would be suspended and ultimately become a pariah. I have no problem if ALL the competitors are playing from the same tees etc…but this is clearly false and misleading advertising and information. I am done with following the channel.
@@paullatina7413 I completely understand your point and in hindsight it was a bit silly, however, she showed up and played the tees she was told to. Given the chance i'm sure she would of taken the opportunity to play the men's tees but unfortunately we havent progressed enough to the point where DP are doing this. I still class this as a win and a great milestone for women's golf but there's a long way to go.
@@comfy5998 ..a long way to go?? What do you mean, what’s your ideal end result?
All the guys commenting on this video have an IQ lower than room temperature so far. Truly outstanding
Do you think this competition makes sense then? Why not have club golfers playing off 26 handicap involved? Sport is segregated by sex and ability for a reason. This competition is pointless.
Actually they all seem to stand for equality, something you obviously don’t promote.
@@drvs2262 Is it equal playing off different tees? It's inclusive having a mixed event but not equal. Could a woman who shoots 67 off the ladies tees shoot it off the mens? Of course not. They would need to be given shots in order to compete playing off the same tees, that's not equal either.
It's fine having mixed events but it's misleading to imply she has won an event on the men's tour.
@@TJ-ss1up you’ve missed my point. By the sounds of it I’m on your side so not sure what you’re meaning to say.
Well bitch it's a 109 in The room I'm in
Only reason she won was because she played a shorter course than the men.
The person playing a shorter golf course won?
Since when was pro golf a handicap system. Different tees are arbitrarily picked and therefore they are playing a very different golf course. I have no problem with handicap tournaments off different tees as the rating for each tee sorts that out. But for gross tournaments you will never get the handicapping right as there is no science to it. This is a go woke go broke for the PGA and DP tour
In our comps young juniors play from the junior tees and this annoys me. The ladies play from the ladies tees, and this does not. Reason? Most of the juniors out drive me, the ladies do not…
A bit unfair the women played off a forward tee in a competition where they play for the same prize
This video is so bad. why are we not seeing actual golf shots and instead seeing some sort of mood video? This would never happen if it was a man!
The people leaving these comments about the tees are the same ones who say women can't do certain jobs because they aren't strong enough. Pick one and stick with it for god's sake.
Agreed, totally. I don't understand why anatomy does not make sense for these people. Also, in the end, not only wouldn't this change anything about male's pro game, because there's no way anyone is giving up the most profitable sector of golf, but it would also encourage more women and girls to start a career in golf, which will in return further improve the overall market, and giving *those* men an even bigger show to watch. Just like introducing women to the work force, which was both an equality thing and a beneficial economic change, this win is the exact same thing--win-win.
Stunning golf(er)

I was actually excited about this until I heard that she didn't play from the same tees as the men. If you want to encourage men to abandon the European Tour and the PGA tour and go to the LIV tour, this is a good way to do that. This is not real competition. you want to beat the men as a woman? play under the same circumstances. Letting women play from shorter tees implies that they have a disadvantage in strength. Does a man with a disadvantage like having a broken leg get to play from shorter tees in competition? No.
A man with a broken leg wouldn't be able to walk never mind play golf
@@samgraham9247 Tiger did. Not the point of the comment, though.
@@NathanKopilec nope. Wrong again
@@samgraham9247 2008 U.S open
@@ReeRaa leg wasn't broken.
great result and a silly video
I’m looking forward to the Olympic 100 metre sprint final, where the women will be given a 10 metre head start on the men …. Woe betide any sky commentator that questions it .😂
..only 10m, surely that’s discriminatory, surely it should at least be 25m
@@cdunne1620 😂😂
All the salty old men in the comments jealous cos linn grant is better at golf than them and fitter than their wives 😂😂😂
Typical soyboy response to white knight for rigged outcomes. Ain’t gonna get you laid, mate
