I watched a little of the LPGA coverage last night. It was my first time to watch the ladies play and I noticed a few things.
* They hit the ball further than I would have thought. Maybe it's just that it made me feel a little inferior watching 16 old girls hit the ball further than me.
* It looks like nobody shows up to watch them. They would sink a birdie putt or make a great drive and it sounded like there were maybe 10 people cheering for them. I could've been watching a fishing show, it was that quiet. Annika was finished playing so maybe everybody had already left.
* (I'm gonna hear it from Rockford for this one) I just didn't feel like I was watching the best women pros in the world going at it. I don't know if it was the lack of cheering or what but it seemed more like an amateur event. Maybe it's just that the guys are that much better and that's what I always watch.
I'm gonna try to catch some of the coverage this weekend to see if more people show up. If not, it's gotta suck a little to make it to the top of your field and have it seem like nobody cares.
