First off...I rarely post, but I do come on a few days a week to read threads(especially the "days of our lives" ones! :-D )....

Anyway, I am watching the LPGA European tour and I have to sa,y that I am mostly watching because there is some good eye "candy", but also some quality golf. I have never watched the Euro Ladies tour, until yesterday, when I noticed at least three good looking women(which is pretty rare for a women's tournament). Usually the leaders on LPGA are not that good looking. I have never heard of these players till yesterday.

Mellissa Reid(she is tied for the lead) is a good looking blond!

Camilla Lennarth(she has a website)...she is one the best looking women's golfer on either the LPGA or the European tour, in my opinion.

Carly Booth-has a nice upper body!

Anyone else watching this, opinions?

When living in Europe, I used to go to a few LPGA Euro events and enjoyed the Swedes, French, and Spanish girls.  Not much into the USA tour (Asian) - although there are a few lookers on the American tour.

Say Orlando.  Are you a man or a woman?  Knowing that will help many of us understand your post.

I watched it last night (2nd round) but didn't notice either of what you mentioned above.   More emphatically, the quality of LET golf was a big cut below LPGA and I watch all LPGA tournaments.   LET have even less depth than LPGA and the scoreboard clearly showed - leader at -12 or something, cut line at +3.   LET is a third or 4th ranked women's golf league after LPGA, KLPGA, JLPGA (may be a tie with this one).

what are you saying then? the women I mentioned you didn't see, or you don't find attractive!? I actually couldn't care less about the quality. I was bored(out of work) and turned the tv to golf channel and it was on.  I noticed the good looking women(which is pretty rare in women's golf), and enjoyed watching. Even though I am a lot older than most of them.

Not any more or less than ones from LPGA - Korda, Creamer, Wie, Gulbis, .... but beauty is in the eye of beholder :-) .

Watched the 3rd round.  Less than 2-foot putt miss, seemingly simple chip barely reaching green, ....   But I enjoyed watching it.  There's no other live golf other than LET.

One reason I enjoy watching other than PGA/EURO PGA events like this tour is that they play similarly to us hacks - its actually fun to see pro golfers miss greens and have to chip/pitch shots.  I identify with the women's tours more so than PGA where these guys are hitting 300 yd drives, 175-yr 8, 9 irons.   Women's distances are closer to my level.

Exactly.  I can relate to their play.   My favorite phrase while watching LET, LPGA is " even I can do better than that" whenever they make an amateur mistake. :-D

I don't watch PGA that much b/c I can't relate to bombing 350 yard drive and grabbing a LW for 2nd shot.   They are playing different game and I play golf.

      Fantastic selection! And very little driving between them. Fingers crossed the weather is good to you.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By ConorHealy · Posted

      Day 20: 2026.01.22 Hit about twenty balls at the range. Quietly pleased with how the changes are bedding in, surprsingly consistent ball flight. Hoping to film over the weekend to capture new movement.

      Looking for a Possible Equipment Switch

      By WUTiger · Posted

      You might also consider a tune-up lesson. Check and see if anything in your set-up or basic swing is holding you back. I have been playing for more than five decades, but on occasion I've had to make swing tweaks due to age, loss of flexibility, etc. You don't have to reinvent your swing. A couple of static set-up changes might really help out.

      Minimum Exercise for Strength and Muscle Growth

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Good advice. In general, you want to take whatever weight you are lifting to a couple of reps before failure, for muscle growth. There are other tactics for PT related stuff. I would trust your PT person.  For muscle growth, you can go like 30 reps to failure. It is tougher to gauge. Also, it takes 2x as long to do the same number of working sets per week if you are doing 15 instead. It is way less efficient, but your case is special because of the injury/aggravation to the hip.

      Ever Get Paired up With a Twosome Including a 2 Year Old?

      By WUTiger · Posted

      Several years ago I got paired with a twosome of golfers, one of which had a maybe 5-year-old son with him. The kid had a putter and a 7i with him, and on some holes he would drop a ball near the green, chip on, and putt. If the kid started to get distracted, the dad would ask, "Do you need to rest?" The kid would nod yes, and then take his dad's seat riding in the cart for a couple of holes. It was a slow day, and the kid was polite and friendly. We got through 18 just fine. (If it had been a crowded course day, I'm sure it would have been less pleasant.)
