You are right about what the definition might be, but everything is not about what the English definition says. Some definitions are based on social or academic definitions that apply to issues like this. And often English definitions change because of social and cultural changes. I am not saying that I disagree with what Cameron stated, but I just realize that the dictionary definition does not always fit to a level of understanding or acceptance. Then again, I do not see a way to get away from the usage of "man to man" because you are referring to women in a particular sport.
