I think distance does make a difference. Kerr playing Phoenix, which is a very easy course for the PGA tour, skews this a tad. Same thing for Whaley and River Highlands. Why did Annika play Colonial? Because the distance was not a huge factor there, and she admitted as much. I do think the 4 handicap would struggle as well, but for different reasons, if he in fact can hit the ball 300 yds. I think if the player was in fact a solid 4 and regularly hits it 300, I think he COULD beat a low ranked LPGA player on courses such as Quail Hollow, Muirfield, Congressional etc. Now, if you had a solid 2 handicap hitting it 300, I think he would stand a very good chance on a long course of beating most players on the LPGA. But what do I know....
