    Well done, but I’m interested as to why women wouldn’t compete with men in something like pinball?

    They do all the time. In fact qualifying for the women’s championship was based on results from open events only ‘no gender restrictions’.
    This championship was a celebration for the top 16 ranked women in the world.
