They got a few…


I mean, there are definitely far more Asian men in golf than any other major professional sport

Women’s Golf and bowling are the easiest sports for a woman to earn a scholarship. There aren’t enough high quality players to make it competitive

Maybe the size difference isn't as much of a disadvantage?

My daughter is 14 and a very good Junior golfer. What I have noticed at her tournaments is that Asians start their girls out a very early ages. It is a cultural thing. In their American Asian culture, it is almost like you and your family are pariahs if you don’t have them playing golf by 8. Not all of them excel though. There are a few on the GSGA Jr tour that I feel sorry for. It’s like they are pressured to play but can’t break 100 if their life depended on it.

My opinion, men's game is longer and requires more strength, players like DeChambeau excel, and Asian men are typically not strong genetically.


Chinese weightlifters are some of the best in the world.

One of the longest male players in the game is “Asian” though he plays out of Australia

1. Is china not in Asia? His contention were Asians were not genetically strong
2. Can you be one of the strongest people on the planet at your size if you aren’t genetically gifted?

When I go to the range at Cinco Ranch Golf Club, Katy, Texas, if there are twenty of us hitting balls, about 3 of us will be white and 15 will be Asians.

As to how Asian women came to dominate women's golf, just my random thoughts unsupported by any test data:
a) Tiger was half-Asian and very popular in the east. Almost every Asian lady golfer seems to have patterned their swing after his. Two of the most fluid and beautiful golf swings out there belong to Jihyo Jung and You Min Hwang. See in links below.
b) Asians promote a high work ethic and half the mental disposition that excelling at golf requires. They are wired like Tiger mentally.
c) They love the game.

You Min Hwang Golf Swing
Jihyo Jung Golf Swing

Bryson is kind of a freak. You don't have to be big or especially strong to hit a golf ball a long way. Rory is not big. Cameron Champ is not big.

The only women golfers I have heard of just do it for Instagram to show off their tits.

The Men's PGA is getting there. I'm pretty sure Tiger Woods was half Asian.
