You guys are so right. Why should we have ANY rules in golf? Especially women's golf. Why should a woman be forced to follow the same rules that apply to men and male professional golfers? And one should NEVER subject an 18 year old to the same rules you apply to a 20-something or older golfer. Pah! Ridiculous. We all know these fools who created this game didn't have rules...they just all played however they wanted and told stories about it later. It was the evil LPGA that came up with these nonsensical rules about having to sign your scorecard in order to compete. We should be mad at them!

I can't believe this is so hard to understand. Rules are rules. Everyone has to play by the same rules or there are consequences. For example, many people on here have words they think shouldn't be censored, but the words are censored because there are RULES about language. Toss out a word on the list and it gets changed. You think it's crazy to censor that word? Too bad. It's in the RULES. Live with it or move on. This is not a new rule or one they never enforce but did with Ms. Wie. This rules has been around for a very long time and been enforced in the same manner many a time. This time it just happened to have happened to the "annointed one."
