Last year the scoring average for the 100th female on the LPGA was 73.75.

The average yardage for an LPGA Tour golf course is between 6,200 and 6,400 yards.


Take that for what it's worth.

Ok, i had no idea how long the LPGA courses are as I don't follow womens golf that closely.

I only judge by how close the red tees are at the courses I see and they are like 5,000-5,500

I take back what I said earlier. A 6,900 yard course isn't long enough to make the difference between a pro womens golfer and scratch male. You are only talking about maybe 30 yards per hole longer. They would still reach all of the holes in regulation and the pro's putting and chipping would be the difference.
