Ladies European Tour farce

Yani Tseng (with Tiger like points advantage), Suzanne Petterson and Christie kerr were my choices, although it seems Chirstie is now number 4 and has recently been replaced I would guess. I wonder if she's struggling with the injury she had the Solheim. I won't say who is 3 in case anyone else knows.
 
It's wumens golf,who cares?

I feel sorry for the European ladies. They win the Solheim Cup and still get little or no recognition. To be honest even GM didn't really focus too much on this achievement either. How can they get wider audiences, TV coverage and sponsorship? Clearly the talent is there. I follow some of the ladie players like Carly Booth and Mel Reid via Twitter and they are working just as hard on their games as the male counterparts. I'm not sure how the money list can be changed unless ranking points of some description are introduced with the majors obviously counting higher. Can't be right to play two events and win surely.
 
my daughter loves men who give it the old ladies golf = crap, couple of weeks ago the ladies who my daughter was playing with took their tee shots & my daughter had to wait. Men behind started giving it some about my daughter not teeing off & she wouldn't reach the group in front, so she invited them all to tee off which they did then stepped up & outdrove them all off the yellow tees they were using. I really don't think at club handicap level being a man or women is that big a difference all the time.

It is if you are playing them in a comp off the whites and they are off the reds and getting a shot on a par 3 with a tee box at least 70 yards in front of yours. Its 229 off the white and 164 off the red. As long as the club makes contact most are guaranteed to be in the vicinity of the green for net nada

I care actually. And if they got any sort of media coverage we'd be able to name the top 3. No coverage on terrestrial TV, very little on Sky. NOTHING in GM.

And don't get me started on what it's like stuck behind 4 old guys who can barely hit the ball but wouldn't even consider letting a lady play through.....
