@light @flancian I'm not that big into sports either but I imagine it would be demoralizing to women. Also, it still introduces a kind of inequality: Men will consistently be getting medals / first place at the highest leagues that are de facto male only, whereas in the lower leagues that are mixed, women will only be getting first place half the time. So, even as the most talented woman in the world in a certain sport, you'll only be winning 50% of the time. This significantly reduces women's reasons to get into sports in the first place.
