Golf is a far more intimate game, and it is conceivable that a woman would be able to break into the men's professional tour. Despite the personal, non-contact nature of the sport, golf can be physical. Men's fairways are longer creating a daunting task to compete with professional male golfers. Therefore, women who make it on the men's tour will have to contend with golfers who can generate much more power with their ability to drive the ball much further. Although the physical differences are cause for concern, the male golf establishment is afraid that women could dominate men due to their highly touted skill-level with approach shots, chips, and putts. The most prominent drawback for professional women golfers is the teeing off location. The professional male golfer has a tee location further back from the hole than the women professional golfers. This discrepancy and the difficulty of ascertaining a qualifying score make it problematic for women to gain entry into the professional men's tour.
