has title nine afected women playing in the pga?

Indirectly, yes. \nWhile Title IX only effects school programs receiving federal money, it has led to a vast increase in the number of female players getting exposed to the game in a competitive situation. That increase in the number of players will not only gradually begin to increase the number of quality players (as illustrated in both men's and women's golf over the past decade or so), but will inevitably lead to a woman capable of playing on the men's tour.

Women have always loved the skill positions.\n\nIn other words, those who score score.

Men and Ladies tournaments both play 18 holes over 4 rounds for a total of 72 holes. The main difference is that the courses during ladies tournaments tend to be shorter, and in some instances the ladies use different tee positions from the men which are nearer to the hole.

women are too competitive with each other.

Some tournaments take the low 68 players and ties.  Other tournaments take anyone within so many strokes of the leaders 10 and or the top 68

I am a woman and may be the only one who agrees with you.  I think the gals like Michelle Wie are trying to challenge themselves at the ultimate level- against the men.  I am not happy that sponsors of the PGA and Nationwide events are giving them invites- this takes away from the men players that maybe have conditional status on either tour but have worked hard through Q school and such and really deserve the spot.  Men are not allowed on the LPGA (nor would they want to play on it- less money-etc...) but it is more the principal.  But the PGA ONLY cares about TV ratings... so they will pay whatever to have the crowds.  Anyway- sorry to my fellow sisters!

Woman can box,play hockey, & they sure can wrestle. The one thing they can't do (the majority) is play football.

Hi Shawn\n\nI see no reason why women should not be allowed to play on the PGA tour, all they need to do is qualify just the same as the men do. \nI dont think any woman should get a sponsers exemption but should have to adhere to all the same rules as the men and that includes useing the mens tee boxes.\n\nI must admit that I did enjoy seeing Annika play on the mens tour but she had her own reasons for doing that. Annika also knows that she cannot compete with the men because of their power, on the other hand Wie believes she can hit the ball as far as any of the men so she feels she has a chance (wrong). Maybe in 10 years she can but by then she wont be able to hit those 300 yarders.\n\nAny way, as long as they conform to all the rules and regs as the men do I see no problem.\n\nLeon

They can't because the lpga is for ladies only. a dude with a sex op wasn't allowed to play. but shame on the pga for allowing the tv rating b.s. that goes on now just because someone didn't clarify that the pga was meant for men, or was it, but now that there is an lpga there is no reason for a female golfer to play on the pga tour apart from money. now there is a lpga the rules for the pga should be changed,   maybe the MPGA should be started. but tv money will never allow that to happen not now or not for a while

In 1944, Hope Seignious, Betty Hicks and Ellen Griffin founded and incorporated the Women'sProfessional Golf Association (WPGA). At that time, the newly formed WPGA was struggling untilWilson Sporting Goods came to the rescue in 1948. In addition, marketing director Fred Corcoranwas brought in to help keep women's golf in the public eye.\nTHE 1950'S\n\nThe LPGA Tour is founded in 1950 and chartered in 1951. A handful of pioneering womenmake the fledgling LPGA Tour their "labor of love" by administering the tournaments whilecompeting in them at the same time for little or sometimes no financial reward.\n\n* Patty Berg is elected the LPGA's first president, and she is later succeeded in that role byLouise Suggs.\n\n* By 1952, the LPGA boasts a schedule of 21 events -- nearly three times the number oftournaments held just two years before.\n\n* LPGA Founder, Charter, and Hall of Fame member Betty Jameson donates the Vare Trophy to the LPGA Tour in 1952 in honor of women's amateur great Glenna Collett Vare. The Vare Trophy recognizes the player with the lowest scoring average at the end of each season.\n\n* The players of that early era greatly contribute to the success of the LPGA. Babe Zaharias,Peggy Kirk, Patty Berg, Louise Suggs, Marilynn Smith and Betsy Rawls add the individualflare needed to escalate interest in the LPGA.\n\n* The LPGA Teaching Division, renamed the LPGA Teaching and Club Professional (T&CP) Division in 1992, is founded in 1959.\n\n* The LPGA Tour prize money reaches $200,000 in 1959.

It`s not nearly as competitive. Women at a pro level would be closer to men`s high school or college levels.

Are you talking about individual players (not teams)?  If so, apparently the record is Dana Barros, with 89.

In 2006, there is only one LPGA player from Thailand. She is Virada Nirapathpongporn. She is currently ranked 169th in the Rolex World Rankings.\n\nhttp://www.lpga.com/content/2006InternationalPlayerslist.pdf
