Ixesha leGalufa liguquguquka ngokupheleleyo (injongo yepun) kodwa ngelixa unokucinga ukuba ngumdlalo wabafana, iPGA ingathanda ukuyitshintsha loo nto. Ngokutsho kweSizwe seGalufa leSizwe, kuphela iipesenti ezili-19 zegalufa ezingabantu basetyhini, kungoko inyathelo elibanzi kushishino lasungulwa kunyaka ophelileyo ukuzisa amantombazana amaninzi kulo mdlalo. Kwaye kubonakala ngathi kusebenza: Le veki izayo iya kuphawula okokuqala kwimbali ukuba amadoda kunye nabasetyhini base-US Opens ziya kudlalwa kwiiveki ezilandelelanayo kwindawo enye-Pinehurst No. 2-kunye namadoda agqiba ngeCawa. kwaye abafazi baqala ngoLwesine. Ayizukukhulisa kuphela ulwazi lomdlalo wabasetyhini, kodwa ikwavumela i-LPGA pros ukuba isebenze ecaleni kwamadoda ngaxeshanye.

Ngamanye amazwi, ukhohlakele ngokupheleleyo kwi-fairways.

Ubume: Kutheni le nto ucinga ukuba bambalwa abantu basetyhini abadlala igalufa kunamadoda, kwaye kutheni kubaluleke kakhulu ukuba abantu ababhinqileyo babandakanyeke kwezemidlalo?

UPaula Creamer (iPC): Ndicinga ukuba lo mahluko waqala kwiminyaka emininzi eyadlulayo xa abafazi babenofikelelo oluncinci kumabala egalufa. Ngokuhamba kwexesha loo miqobo yaphulwe kancinci, kodwa abantu basetyhini bacothisa ukwamkela umdlalo kwizizukulwana ezazijongwa njengomdlalo wendoda. Imiyalelo kunye nokuziva ukhululekile ekhosini kubalulekile. Ndicinga ukuba abafazi bayayonwabela imiba yentlalo yomdlalo njengamadoda kwaye kunye nabo babandakanyekayo, iintsapho ezininzi ziya kuthanda ukudlala kunye. Iintsapho ukwenza izinto kunye akukaze kube yinto embi.

Andikuthandi ukudikwa, ngenxa yoko kubalulekile ukuba ukuzilolonga kwam kutshintshe rhoqo. UJon Burke wenza umsebenzi omhle ngokwenene ukugcina ukuzilolonga kusitsha. Ukuzivocavoca umzimba kunxulunyaniswa nobugcisa beMartial Martial, ejolise kakhulu kwimeko, imeko yengqondo yengqondo, undoqo, kunye noluhlu lokuhamba. Ungawahlukanisa amalungu omzimba, kodwa ukomelela ngokupheleleyo kubaluleke kakhulu. Kule sizini yexesha elidlulileyo besijolise kuyo kwaye sizamile ukomeleza isinqe sam. Zibalulekile kwi-swing yegalufa. Ngenxa yoko, ndifumene isantya sentloko yeklabhu, ebangele ukunyuka komgama ukusuka kwi-tee.
