LPGA has Balls

How ironic is it that the league with the largest amount of "testicular fortitude" is lacking in the literal possesion of said physcial trait?

I applaud the LPGA Tour for coming out recently with plans for a new policy requiring all memebers with at least 2 years seniority on Tour to be able to speak enough English to conduct post tournament interviews, interact with playing partners at Pro-Am tours, etc. It's an American based tour and they have a right to set a standard of performance to be able to participate.

It's not politically correct from many angles. . . and it's really about money. If the sponsors hadn't complained about the lack of communication ability from players this would never be an issue. Money talks. . and in this case it speaks English. . . or enough to answer a few questions from Bob Costas and the golf channel. The lack of PC'ness, if you will, is one reason I like the move so much. I wish the gates leading into California echoed the same sentiment as past Presidents of the United States when they talked about integrating into American society and learning the language.

Three cheers for the LPGA for setting a policy they think will be good for their league without bowing to outside pressures. . . for now.

Agreed?
