The LPGA is in trouble in the fact that sponsors are not forth comming to put the big bucks up for the major tournaments partly because the game is being dominated by asian women. The game of golf is very popular among women but unless something changes we are likely to see less and less LPGA matches on TV.

That hasn't been the case as of yet as television time has increased about 20% this year.
