LPGA golf superstars like Cristie Kerr have been playing as a expert longer than the a long time of a number of the hottest young golfers status beside her on the tee field. With eighteen teens poised to make records on the 2013 U.S. Women's Open, can youth revitalize a sagging Tour?
Golf Channel's "State of the Game" Roundtable Discussion at the U.S. Women's Open asked Kerr, Annika Sorenstam andMike Whan about the state of the Ladies' game and whether teenagers are prepared to take on this revitalization movement.
Cristie Kerr noted that sponsorships and resources at the moment are extra available to younger players. Add to that the severa intellectual and swing coaches that accompany every participant and "they're lots more geared up to play expert golf as a young age."
Annika Sorenstam believes that the more youthful golfers "carry loads to the game"; they are mature and hit the ball an extended manner.
Mike Whan explained that, despite the fact that you may see extra young adults competing on this occasion, it is due to the fact it is a USGA event in preference to an LPGA event. Strict hints were put into place to make certain that the LPGA is offered to kids players, "however we type of draw a line between get admission to to play and be a member, because with membership, comes a lot greater responsibilities and those know higher than ever."
Advice from Annika? "Just have fun, revel in. You have so many years beforehand of you, don't rush it, because it's difficult to be available."
This week at Sebonack GC, Paula Creamer and Matt Lauer were on hand to participate in a golf clinic where over one-hundred youngsters attended, most of the kids from LPGA-USGA Girls Golf. Is this solid proof that the game is growing and moving forward for the youth of America? Jeanne-Marie Hamilton-Moore of the First Tee of Essex County said about Creamer after the golf clinic “She’s famous and she’s amazing, and I know that I can achieve that one day.”
It is inevitable that younger golfers will play a large function in the development of ladies's golf and, in my opinion, so long as young adults are introduced into the sport and moved along at the right speed and with the right frame of thoughts, the game will keep to prosper.
