Agreed, how pointless. Women get slaughtered by men in sports, even one as limiting as golf. I'd like to see a girl be a safety in the NFL for 1 set of downs as much as I would watching one play golf again out of her league.
Still, that girl was very interesting to watch, handled the pressure amazing (well other than being the supposed best LPGA golfer in the world and not even breaking under par at a taylor made, windless golf course) and impressed me. Not by placing 96th or whatever, but the way she carried herself, and told reporters she was never going to play in a PGA event again. Pretty classy.
