I rarely watch women’s golf but I turned it on yesterday to see how Nelly Korda was doing. I was stunned to see that she missed the cut!!

I found out that on the third hole on Thursday, she had a 10 on a par 3. She hit three straight balls in the water. The cut was plus 8 and she finished plus 10.

I think it’s where most international sports are trending. Great example is Major League Soccer. I heard less than a percent of US college soccer players actually make a pro team...the international talent smothers that feeder system. The good for the women’s golf game is it can’t survive without a US based tournament schedule and TV deal....the bad is, nobody is going or watching

Simple. The Asian girls put the practice hours in that the American/European girls don't.
Jerry Barber and Gary Player would both approve!

What's the issue? If you are talking about the players with Asian names, many of those ladies are Americans and if their leads hold, they'll be representing the US in the olympics.

When will they learn on here to do some due diligence before responding. I knew you had receipts for that one!

I took your initial post...as intended. At first glance, even to a non fan of the sport....is a ‘US Open’ graphic and then a leaderboard that looks like a lineup in the Nippon pro baseball league. Of course on here, everything devolves into a sexist, misogynistic or political accusation rant by those that continually miss the point.

Maybe the post was to illustrate that those female players of Asian extraction, regardless of their present nationality, apply themselves well to this particular sport. No sleight there. Just acknowledgement of what seems evident in the graphic. Respectfully submitted for consideration
