June's Women
Golf Month
By Lynne L Finch |
|
Now that our EWGA leagues are out on
the golf courses, you’ve gotta love
Babe Didrikson Zaharias’
observation, “Golf is a game of
coordination, rhythm and grace;
women have these to a high degree.”
And being women, we also like to
talk, so this month is the time to
talk golf. Did you know that June is
American Express Women’s Golf Month?
The promotion is part of the
national Play Golf America campaign.
For more information about this and
next month’s Family Golf Month,
visit
www.playgolfamerica.com.
As you think about women on the golf
course here is the good news and bad
news from the world of statistics.
First the bad: According to the
recent National Golf Foundation
report, the number of women golfers
remains flat at 23% of total
golfers, but in 2008 women played
only 15% of all rounds in the United
States, continuing a downward trend
for women.
Now for the good: Girls ages 6-17
are playing more rounds than boys.
The average rounds a year for girls
is 13 compared to 10 for boys. Go
girls!
As you spread the word and encourage
more women and girls to golf, be
prepared. The next Tiger on the
course may be a Tigress! |
