Is Women’s Golf A Major Sport?

September 11, 2005

The Bradenton Herald has a debate on whether women’s golf should be considered a major sport.

Sadly, I think that there are a lot of people out there who would debate as to whether even men’s golf is a major sport.

The answer to both is yes.

Golf, I think at this point has more right to the title major sport than Hockey.

  • There’s no doubt that the LPGA and women’s golf are a major sport.  You need look no further than the Wegman’s Tournament in Rochester, NY each year.  $1.5 million purse, and fairways lined with fans from Wednesday to Sunday.

    What I’d like to see in the future is a co-ed Ryder/Solheim Cup type Tournament.  Have the best men and best women play together in an International tournament.
