She seemed to be hinting that if she won she'd be open to returning to the LPGA. At least that's how I read her comments. What do you think?<BR/><BR/>I think China's probably 7-1o years away from making a real bang in women's golf. I didn't see any good performances from the Chinese amateurs in the Evian junior event this summer or the Sweden-dominated team amateur event from a couple of weeks ago. That's not to say some youngsters can't improve quickly, but the level of competition internationally is rising so fast, it won't be as comparatively easy as it was for the younger Koreans.<BR/><BR/>In the pro ranks, Feng has gotten hot, so hopefully will finish strong and get off to a good start in '09, but Na Zhang is injured (back) and has hardly played at all on the JLPGA this season. From the 1st round and LAGT results, seems like Tao-Li Yang might be the next big thing, but I'd like to see her get some seasoning on the JLPGA if she can't pull off a win this week.The Constructivisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07242149985581771922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1198629951037494295.post-5149949563920844952008-10-23T11:53:00.000-04:002008-10-23T11:53:00.000-04:00Thanks for linking to the Golf in China post, I ha...Thanks for linking to the Golf in China post, I hadn't found this blog yet when it was posted.<BR/><BR/>I've been fascinated on seeing the progress of Yang Hong-Mei after winning her first Futures event in 2004, and it's sad to see her leave the US due to the barriers of language. She seemingly had a lot of talent, I wonder if she'd ever give it a try again.<BR/><BR/>Imagine if golf was an olympic sport? I'd imagine the Chinese would be just as prevalent or even more so then Korea.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
