LEE KRAMER'S ROOM: With Views

[janice shell]

Okay, let's have some sports in which women can compete with men. Shooting is one, and always has been. Even in a very chauvinistic time, it was agreed that she was a spectacular shot. And men and women compete in the same events today.

Here's a pretty comprehensive list:

Which olympic event do men compete against women?
In Summer Olympics: 4x100M medley mixed relay in swimming. 4x400M mixed team event in track and field. Mixed team event in archery. Esquestrian. Sailing. Mixed team relay in triathlon. Mixed double in table tennis. Mixed double in badminton. Mixed double in tennis. Mixed team event in Judo. Mixed team trap, mixed team air rifle and mixed team pistol in shooting.

In Winter Olympics: Pair figure skating. Ice dancing. Mixed double in curling. Mixed team relay in luge. Mixed team in alpine skiing. Mixed relay in biathlon.

And I have the feeling Serena Williams could handle most potential male competitors.
