Re: ladies golf

Using 2006 Season figures, Karen Sjodin was the longest of the Ladies on the LPGA tour with an average drive of some 284 yards. This would have placed her in a tie for 139th Position on the PGA list with Bob Tway amongst others.

It would also mean that she was longer than Zach Johnson, Jim Furyk, Mark Calcavecchia, Justin Leonard and Mark O'Meara to name but a few.

At 261.3 yards and 16th place on the LPGA list, Annika would not have placed in the top 196 as Corey Pavin was the shortest of the men with 265.9 yards.

So, I guess on those figures, the answer to your question is no, they're not.

Cheers
