No woman has ever made a cut in a men's PGA Tour event before that can read of happening other than Babe Dickinson Zaharis making 36 hole cut, but not 54 hole cut to play final round. Annika is remembered for playing Colonial. Did not remember Michelle Wie getting into 8 tournaments. With this subject matter---no man has played an LPGA Tour event. The LPGA Tour a few years did not allow Lana Lawless born a male, but transitioned to being female to compete in LPGA Tour events.

I remember LPGA players competing in PGA events...
...BUT...
...We're now living in an age where sexual discrimination is beinc claimed among male, female, trans and some new definitions that I'm not familiar with.

I fear that there is an army of lawyers phoning their BMW dealers...
