They also mention she missed a 10 footer because she had to pee, which I thought was a really weird thing to say in a DG videos commentary.
Yeah apparently women talk about things like that...it was a bit odd.

There was quite a bit of chatter about McBeth's potty break at the Memorial.
If memory serves me correctly, JohnE McCray's rant about it was part of the reason for the chatter. Just sayin', is all.
Another point of interest: for a while, Cat was playing with the men, sometimes as the only woman entered in the tournament. She hasn't done much of that lately, that I'm aware of, which causes me to continue to wonder if she's had an injury or something...
You must have missed the thread on distance and volume.
To everyone whom I've now offended, sorry...

I believe she has only done that (played with the men) when there were no other FPO women to play against anyway. More specifically, she did it often at DGWT events where there was no women's division offered at all. Now there is a women's division offered at those events (except USDGC), and it's rare to find NT/A-tier/DGPT events without some kind of an FPO field, there's little incentive or reason for Cat or any other woman to play MPO.
Didn't she primarily play in MPO due to the DGPT not having a womens field in 2016? She did play in I think 1 that didn't have any FPO entries that weren't DGPT.

Care to elaborate? I never heard this story.
Probably far easier just to read the thread about it. This link should take you to about when it came up on the live feed and then you can follow all the discussion about it.
That is mostly correct, but I thought there was a tourney here and there that was not DGWT where she happened to be the only woman playing, or she played in a man's division anyway.
And that also brings up a point made earlier: I've heard off and on for a while now that Cat is not popular with the other women on tour. And this isn't just recent months but at least a couple of years. Some say Cat is just intense on the course (as is Ricky), but some say there is some geniune animosity between her and others. In the Utah Open, Cat was complaining about a call made against her that she didn't agree with, and she implied that those kind of calls on her were par-for-the-course (pun not intended).
One thing that might be happening: at Worlds last year, Cat, who chafes at only having one world title while other women have three or more, was in the lead until that Final 9. We all remember Paige giving Val the congratulatory hug, and the applause by the gallery for the good sportsmanship. At the end of that, as Val and family celebrated her win, Terry Miller made a comment along the lines of "Cat just can't believe it", or some such.
Soooo, one wonders if Cat has just never recovered from losing that Worlds. Me, I think it's more than that (physical injury, other things in her life), and I hope Cat gets things right and becomes competitive again, or at least finds personal happiness...
I'm curious, has cats rating dropped? Is it that she's come down or that other players have I!proved? Just curious.
I don't know about her rating, and Paige has just exploded this year (in a good way), but Cat is not doing as well as she has done in the past. As an example: after Paige had to leave the Utah Open, Cat couldn't close the deal and win that tournament. Not saying that to disparage Jessica Weese, who played well, but the Cat of last year would've won that going away.
There was a blunt post addressing trolls that Paige mentioned that when she was with prodigy she just didn't have fairway drivers to throw and only 1 distance driver.
She attests her spike and great play to the disc selection she has available to her now.
I can't find the post now.
