Dude, women have been relatively more competitive in professional golf than women ever will be in tennis.

You cannot argue this case with a straight face.

Women aren't winning PGA tour tournaments but they will and have done better than any woman could hope to do in an ATP level men's tournament.

ETA: Women are not winning tournaments in either sport against the men so that is a moot point and irrelevant.

Women have not been competitive, stop it. Not making the cut Ever is not competitive. Not falling on your face doesn’t mean you were competitive. The courses are consistently longer and more difficult than when sorenstam played as well. Part of the evolution of golf in the past decade


Either way. The argument is not which sport is easier to not embarrass yourself in. It is which is hardest to master. Golf has a lower barrier to entry to not embarrass yourself due to it’s less physical nature(although the physical barrier has been increasing greatly for over a decade), I think it has a higher barrier to master. Alex Smalley hasn’t mastered golf but he can go on the course and do poorly enough to miss every single cut but not well enough for anyone to know who the frick he is

You are conflating two separate arguments
