Mostly Harmless: Are Americans Underachieving on LPGA Tour?
Underachieving yes and no. On the golf course American Ladies are getting their butt kicked. Endorsements, no thank you, Gulbus, Creamer, Wie and a couple others are doing quite well. Overall, the LPGA is struggling as they have lost several sponsors the last couple years and there are open dates on their schedule. With few exceptions, our best athletics (girls and boys) tend to participate in team sports as opposed to individual sports such as golf. The LPGA, PGA and USGA is quite aware of the problem but have yet to come up with a real solution.
