2010 Worldwide Women's Professional Golf Schedule: LPGA, JLPGA, KLPGA, LET.

Thanks to Happy Fan at Seoul Sisters.com, who posted the 2010 KLPGA schedule in a language I can understand, I'm able to provide this update of the worldwide women's professional golf schedule for all the major tours. The LET has firmed up its schedule since I last updated that post, as well. I'll update the list of winners as the year goes on.

[Update 1 (3/16/10, 5:42 am): Thanks to Tim Maitland for passing along the KLPGA's English tournament listing for 2010.]

NOTE - I also added the LPGA’s development tour, the (DTF) Duramed Futures Tour events here, for many around the world follow this tour as well. (Added by greentee)

Probably a good idea, as I well be updating it within the post.... then adding on to it.

You are welcome, but most thanks has to go to The Constructivist, who put most of this schedual together. :-)

I was thinking of adding the Canadian tour, and the Aussie tour, and the Asian tour, (which brings in other Asian tours like India, and those south of China), and Africa.... but too much for me to handle, plus I well be away from golf most this spring, and maybe summer. If anyone else is up to this huge world tour following.... all the more power to ya.

I also follow about 15 other tours in the world.... a lot of small ones in USA and Europe.... like Scotland, Ireland, Wales, Legends Tour, (USA tours - AWGA - Cactus - MWGA - OHWGA - CWDGA - FWSGA - RLGA - LGU).... but not too often.

Thanks for adding this post, Greentree. The Constructivist has a good blog. And unlike this DB, he actually talks about golf. Every thread doesn't eventually devolve into a bunch of grumpy old men reminiscing about booze, cigarettes and the women they can no longer get accompanied by cheesy photoshopped images.

But, whatever. If that's what people want from this site, they've got it.

Ya he's a very good blogger. He got into putting out articles on the JLPGA, when no others were. Then got hooked on it, and now he is in way to deep to get out.

As for grumpy old men and their joys and toys, women golfers visual or not, can sure drag their hearts around. And ya gotta keep this in mind as well with a lot of us old timers from back then..... we wish we could fly like the women do with that little white ball.... if we were just lighter, cheerier, and had those bouncy invisible wings that they all do.... why we would be a bird too....
