A search on Google didn't yield much - there's a Yahoo answer that blasts SnT.

I saw the picture of a player in the NYT blog, but I don't she's on the LPGA tour, but the one below it.

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

Anna Rawson made ONE Top10 in around 40 starts on the LPGA - i quickly would forget about her and how she swings. She has a lot in her mind, and golf doesnt seem to take a priorty there.... She is another great example why you cant judge somebodys success (or the lack of it in her case) by the swing pattern she uses - simply put because she uses golf as a platform to promote herself instead of taking the game serious.

Yah, and a few on the Future Tour.

Unfortunately that's probably the case.

--- The women are a bit of an odd case... they could be helped so much, particularly with distance, if they could do a few things. Very few of them rotate their hlps and utilize jumping quite as much as they could. It's almost a tour of arm swingers. I honestly think it's due in large part to the fact that there's little money to be made by working with an LPGA player. They rarely get the short-game experts that the men get, and the same is true of the full swing guys (except the top few). Go to an LPGA event and it's usually a player working with their caddies. And even if some instructor looking to make a name for himself turned a bunch of LPGA players into S&T; winners, his name would still be relatively small in the golf landscape. Anyway, some videos of Anna.

Does that explain their lousy putting (see the recent Golf Digest article)?

Sorry i cant read the GD article - are you ironic or are they indeed bad putters?

Women are bad putters. I've always felt it but now it's basically proven.

I was going to 100% agree...I checked out her website and definitely see golf not being #1 to her...then again its her personal website, not annarawsongolf.com but then it occured to me that LPGA players due struggle a bit more when it comes to tournament purses, publicity, sponsorships, etc.. when compared to their PGA player counterparts. So from a financial standpoint, I can understand why someone on the LPGA would look for other avenues for self promotion and financial gain, versus relying soley on tournament winnings.

But since I don't know her whatsoever, I cannot make a judgment of how serious or not serious she takes the game of golf. I can only comment that unless you are a star player on any Tour, money doesn't rain from the heavens and you have to do what you have to do to make a name for yourself.

Pretty much consider her the Anna Kournikova of golf. She has skills, but she's also a beautiful girl with other aspirations.

I don't recall Anna Kournikova being hideously underweight. Intellectually, they are probably on a similar level, though. Ever heard Rawson speak?

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

Kournikova reached the top 10 - unlike golf, in tennis you have to beat the person one-on-one. She made a few singles finals, but just couldn't seal the deal. I think she did win one major though - in doubles.

Basically, she was a gazillion times better at tennis than Rawson is at golf.

Agree about as strongly as someone can agree......

That's probably because women have been proven to on average have inferior depth perception to men. I feel like when the ladies miss it it's more often either long or short than off line.
