Ladies v Men


Question
A mixed singles matchplay competition is played on a course which is par 71 (sss70) off the men's tees but par 72 (sss72) for the ladies. The 15th is a par 4 on the men's card but a par 5 on the ladies.  Both players par the hole, the man in four strokes and the lady in five.  Has the man won the hole as he has holed his ball in fewer strokes?  (Rule 2.1)  

Answer
Dear Geoff, thanks for the question.  The answer is no. The hole is tied.  The tees and basic parameters are set up for the fair competition across skill levels.  A true score is relative to the particular par on the hole, for each specific player and the parameters they have chosen to play.  Having said that, should a woman decide to play the men's tees, then par would then be whatever it is from that tee with no regard for the player or gender of the player.  Good luck, thanks again for asking and remember...

Love the game,
skipper
