A few years ago, someone asked people if could win a point against #1 female tennis player in the world Serena Williams and many ignorant dudes stated they could.
When I was occasionally playing tennis, I would have said hell yes and if given the opportunity would have likely seen serves whiz past maybe shanking one or two off the racket.
The tennis days ended a long time ago so that phrase for me would apply to disc golf. Personally, 2 1/2 years ago at the Masters Worlds at Sunset Hills confirmed the gap between FPO elite players who play that course and me.
Comparing me to players most of whom are a quarter century and more younger is not feasible but a female ten time major championship winner who is eligible for events in 55+ age divisions is from the Chicago area.
Over the past 5 years, we played in the same event 5 times (2-2-1) most notably in Wisconsin where she won the MP50 division and I won the MA50 division with the exact two round score.
This Sunday for a one round event at 50 Acre Park, noticed that player is registered for the MA50 division and there was an open spot in the foursome and I eagerly signed up for that time always wanting to play a round with her.
The ignorant "14 year old" version of me from 1979 who considered females as inferior sees this as something different. Unfortunately way too many people earlier this month had the same thought when they went to vote and some of them already discovered how the publicly stated plan will hurt them and the country.
No matter what, the 59 year old version of me who is wanting to play one more rated round in 2024 and get to 900 rated needs to be there. By ratings, both of us are expected to shoot the same score.
