The slope doesn't look so slippery from where I stand. Probably just because I have yet to spill my drink on the slope. But anyway, the 14-16 league is for kids
up to age 16; if a 12 year old is good enough to play with the big kids, no harm. The 12 year old league is for kids up to 12. I see no issue with not allowing the fat talentless 15 year old to play with the younger kids.
Similarly, and I could be wrong about this, but I don't see the word "men's" in the PGA. It is the tour for the best golfers in the world, period. What's her name may not meet that definition, but if a sponsor with a free pass wants to give her a chance to try, so be it. The LPGA, in contrast, is expressly for "ladies." It acknowledges that most, and probably all, of its participants couldn't hack it on the PGA tour. I see no problem with letting the top chick try to play with the big boys, while denying some hack from the Nationwide tour the opportunity to play on the
LADIES Pro Golfers' Association tour.
