International players reshape golf tour landscape
The AP reports that foreign-born golfers won over half the PGA and LPGA events as Vijay Singh's wins push global dominance. Meg Mallon, Ty Votaw, and Arnold Palmer discuss the shift, noting Americans still lead with titles while tours expand internationally across the United States, Europe, and Asia. The LPGA schedules seven countries next year, including Mexico, amid concerns for smaller tours.
