You should probably look up the effects of testosterone. Namely upper body strength and bone density. Women are weaker than men.
Not all men. You think you can compete against any woman out there and win? Also, do you think every sport is about strength?
Even in "sports" like chess, darts and pool virtually every single world class player is a male. It's not just about strenght.
I'd really love sources on that since I don't follow those sports. Are they mixed?
But in chess, there are a definitely female grand masters (whatever that means). Pool had the famous "black widow" player. Who even plays darts? I only know of one fat Brit who has dominated against other men. No idea if women even play.
You can look up the leaderboards of any of the mentioned sports. It's not that there's not any women in there but it's still virtually all male.
Then there are plenty of examples of top level female athletes losing to males nobody has never even heard of.
