Is the LPGA even on network TV anymore?
It is in Korea, Japan and Sweden, I don't know about the US though, you seem to prefer things like the Kardashians and Jersey Shore.

not sure where you got that from, can't say I even know what Jersey Shore is? Actually once I googled it to see what you were talking about, I don't even have MTV.
My point was that if its not on network TV in the US, meaning NBC, ABC and CBS than that shows how far the LPGA has fallen. I don't have time to search out whatever channel they are showing the LPGA on, the few spare hours in the day that I have are not spent watching people I don't know play in places I will never go or have a desire to go to in order to play golf. I don't think I am alone in that feeling and the fact that they ARE NOT on network TV proves how much NOBODY watches the LPGA.
While the LPGA has recovered a bit from the Bivens mismanagement debacle, the reality is, it is still struggling and you are absolutely right that if it ain't on the network, nobody is watching. The Golf Channel covers most of the their tournaments (ESPN has two majors) and I don't like watching golf on their crappy, low quality broadcast. I don't mind the PGA tournaments on the GC because they are typically using network equipment.
