And only one of them is in the top 70 in rankings. (#10)

And i'll bet their short game is better too.


Probably. It would be more consistent and refined most likely, but the top 10 guys in the country have very good short games.

I think from ladies tees the men would compete for wins, but wouldn't dominate.

Yeh I just looked it up. 9 out of 10 women in the top 10 rankings average right at 255 yards. So the boys would be about 50 yards further off the tee than the competition. I am leaning to say they would dominate the tour if they played from ladies tees. Their approach shots would be hit with wedged compared to 6 and 7 irons
