Why do women want to play in the PGA?

Before you women start bashing me, I love watching the LPGA on TV, I find it very exciting and fun to watch, I wish the Major TV Networks would put them on more. In fact, when they are on, I watch them over the PGA. I enjoy competition,which the women on the LPGA do very well, when playing each other but come on, with the length men can hit the ball and how competitive the PGA is now, I get bored with them trying to compete with the men. I do however enjoy the Skins game when Annika plays, but WHY! can't women understand this?

    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!

    There is one main reason why LPGA players want to play on the PGA. Women want to go out and prove that they are just as good or even better than the men that play on the PGA.

    hi Jocelyn Its in common terms a guy undertaking with them, their thoughts get harm while a woman needs to play on the PGA excursion. PGA potential expert golf association there are expert lady golfers. LPGA potential women expert golf association not one of the lads are expert women and can't play on the LPGA as far as Wie or Annika taking part in on the mens excursion i think of its super yet for specific they have not have been given any threat of prevailing. in any case some years in the past Babe Saharis performed on the mens excursion. Its sturdy for the pastime. Leon
