Go win a womens tournament, play in one. Getting embarrased in mens tourneys is not doing you any good.

I'm already sick of her and she is what, 17?

Yeah, it would do her a lot better if she would dominate the women's end before trying to do well in the men's.

Me too. She always talks about wanting to play with the big guys, but how is she ever going to win if she tons of putts from within 10 feet like yesterday.

Cynical, bitter bitching aside, it's pretty amazing what's she's doing at her age.

has she won anything? I'm not being sarcastic, just have never heard of her winning any events at all.

Apart from age group tournaments,nope.

Its not cynical or bitter bitching that im gonna get into here, Im just so sick of her. She hasnt paid her dues, she sacks caddies, her dad is one of those idiot compulsive parent types and she hasnt got near a cut yet. Yes she is an amazing golfer for 16 (? I think?) but she has to bide her time.

Agree or not, she is robbing someone of getting paid to do a job. The spot she takes up could be a journeyman or a rookie etc on tour who can make some good dosh. Like jimmac says, go win a womens tour and for that matter go and dominate the tour then maybe you can come back. But even then I say no, its a mens tour. Go make a sammich.

Misogynist jokes devoid of irony haven't been funny in centuries.

Anyway, she missed the cut in her first men's tournament by two strokes when she was 14. Your money argument is ridiculous, as her presence in these tournaments increases attendance and tv revenues, thus increasing the total purse.

All of her overratedness aside, I'd still hit it when she turns 18, unless she is in some sort of horribly disfiguring accident, you know like Annika Sorenstam dunks her in a vat of acid or something like that.

nice legs though

who is watching a tourney because she is playing in it, especially when she is shitting the bed every time? I really don't think she increases attandance. She might increase media coverage but even they will realize what a waste of time it is to cover these events.

and horrible thin lips that don't cover her upper teeth.

A few of the posts in this thread have referenced her legs, lips and general fuckability, so obviously somebody is watching. She's getting sponsor's exemptions specifically because the sponsors think their tournaments are more attractive to audiences with her playing.

Even if she doesn't increase attendance by one person, your point about media coverage means there is lesser or no need for tournaments she's in to advertise, which undoubtedly would save the tournaments money it could add on to the prize pool. Of course, crowds are larger when she plays, as a cursory googling turned up a story saying how the European Tour event she played in Switzerland when she was 16 had a 40% increase in attendance. That's pretty huge.

not true, i have yet to watch a single tourney she is in, yet all i see is how bad she has played on espn

how about we enlighten ourselves before continuing the thread.

*shrugs*


the point?

the point is that you know little about her career if you're calling her a joke.

Hmm...not quite 17.

no, shes a joke on the mens tour, i never said she was a joke, i do believe she needs to concentrate on being the best she can on the womans tour
