At the height of her Dominance Annika missed the cut at even in the 2003 Colonial, Kenny Perry won at -19 under.

I would say on average female would be 15-30 shots behind the winner, if they ever made a cut.

Ok. We discussed it at the bar and have come up with the following.

On a longer more strenuous course, (men's typical layout) the difference per round would be 5-8+ strokes. It's not just distance. The women likely hit the ball a bit straighter on their courses. On the men's, they would have to be ripping at it more often, from the tees and fairways. This would likely result is more wayward shots. From the rough, they would struggle reaching many greens.

On the shorter courses, (typical women's layout) the men would have a difference of less...4-6 strokes. Around the greens the women are much more comparable, skill-wise. The men would rarely need driver so their accuracy would increase.

So what have we learned? Nothing, really.
