In pdga santioned tournaments you are supposed to have to play with people in your own division when at all possible. Was it fair to the guys chasing Tracey to not have an opportunty to play with the person who was beating them?

You can't just DECIDE to break up a division's placement on cards to facilitate girls playing together.

I'm with Sue on this one. "At least of for the second round." Sanctioned events should be following the rules:

804.06 Grouping and Sectioning
A. Professional and Amateur players should not be grouped together, and all players from different divisions shall be segregated from each other during play as much as practicable.
B. All players within a division should be randomly grouped for the first round and grouped by cumulative score for each round thereafter.

And the reason I speak out, is I believe there is room for change aka enlightenment for the powers that be, and the only way they learn is by being made aware that what they are doing is not considered correct.

And I think I'll just not read this board anymore, as any disent is squashed. This mob mentality choses to do things their own way, whether right or not.

Sue, In this scenario there is a clear rule by which to define "right or not". In my opinion you are completely justified in bringing this issue up. And you are correct that there is room for enlightenment by all.

As for dissent, I think "hotly contested" may be more accurate than "squashed".
