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


Yeah that changes things a little, but I still think the top 10 women and top 10 HS men would be competitive with each other from ladies tees. I don't think the guys would hit driver very much as it would bring unnecessary risk for a short course.

Men's tees and it wouldn't be fair.

So I just looked up putting stats to compare PGA and LPGA. The top 72 PGA players in putts per round are better than the 2nd ranked LPGA player in putts per round.

I know we are debating high school, but I am trying to prove my point that their short games are not anything crazy. That is just everyone's cop out as to why LPGA players are good.
