Wow, you really got your panties in a wad - so let me help you straighten out your laundry.
First, I was not commenting on my own tastes - I’ve never cared much for the LPGA from a fan standpoint at any time, but I have noticed a cooling of the sport and reduced exposure as every other league in golf is surging. I have also noticed a leaderboard dynamic that I think explains it. I was not justifying it, nor condemning it, just making an observation and a prediction.
As for tennis, it is also a sport that is not exactly booming over the past 30 years compared to golf (although it is on a little uptick lately) - and I think the robotic nature of some of the tennis stars is part of the reason. I also think it’s absurd to think that Russian beauties have invaded women’s tennis in the same numbers that Koreans have invaded womens golf. Your analogy is laughable.
Having said that, anything with a bunch of Anna Kournikova look alikes will get a ton of attention. You can’t fight human nature. Now, go get some decaf and quit looking for dark hidden agendas and emotions that do not exist....
The only lpga event I went to was at tartan fields in dublin ohio.
I camped out at one hole where you could see what was happening on 4 different holes. Some asian women won and was playing with creamer in the last group. About 10 people followed that group around and about 300 were following Natalie Gulbis around.
I’ve also been to the memorial in dublin and only about 600-700 follow tiger woods around.
I guess the koreans need to die their hair blonde, get boob jobs and dress like a stripper to make the sport popular.
