The Turkish Airlines Ladies Open started on Sunday and the final round will be played on Wednesday.  This is the first tournament that they've tried with this schedule.

While there's no way to know if the new schedule works The LET's sponsors seem to be in favor of the change: The purse for this year's event is double what it was last year.

I can honestly say I've never watched a LET event, but live golf at the beginning of the week? Sounds good to me.

Makes sense, only way I would watch would be if there wasn't a better tournament already. Looked at their youtube page and final round coverage starts tomorrow at 7am, too bad I'll be working as I wanted to check out the ladies talked about in the other LET thread.

A heaven sent for me.  My wife and I can't wait until Thursday for tournament broadcasts to begin.  She watches everything (LET, Champions, PGA, LPGA) and I watch Tiger & LPGA only.   Now, I can watch live golf on Monday through Wednesday after coming back from work.  I just wish it was LPGA that's doing that - some LPGA events are tape delayed b/c their schedule conflicts with men's events.

Having said that, I watched 2nd & 3rd rounds of this week's LET tournament.  Quality of golf is very poor, far below LPGA and KLPGA (which I watched for two seasons).  But it is still interesting.   Well, it's better than no golf.
