which tour would your rather play on?
PGA or European? For me, it would be the European Tour.

Did think of that Matt but thought pro players dont get a lot of time to do sight seeing, But I maybe wrong.

I'd go for the LPGA . I still wouldn't have a hope in hell of outdriving them, but a) I'd be allowed to wear shorts on hot sunny days, and b) the courses would be a lot shorter, and c) my playing partners would frequently be a whole lot easier on the eyes.
The downside would be having to learn Korean as a second language! I mean, have you seen the number of Koreans in the LPGA money list?

Would have to be the US for me. 3/4 majors are held there, so many other major tournaments, and the chance to play against the majority of the world's best week in week out.

would be an intersting fact to work out how many of the worlds top players play all the tour or pick where they want to play just to keep the card for the tour

Would have to be European.Get to travelto loads of different countries and see the world. Couldnt stand hearing 'Get in the hole' every single shot you play in America and you'd play with a wider range of players.

Darren, I remember when the LPGA was regularily on (I think) the Golf Channel, and I would often watch that as opposed to the PGA. At least with the LPGA you were pretty much guaranteed that the top players would be there for all the events, and while they may not play as long off the tee as the men, there didn't seem to be a lot of difference once they got on and around the greens.

Interesting answers here.
I would pick PGA Tour. More money, easier travel and similar course conditions each time.
BTW,
You don't see the world when travelling 'on tour'. You see the local Airport, Hotel and Golf Course and nothing else. That is unless your outbound flight is Sunday night and you miss the cut, but then you need to see a lot of the practice facilities rather than local sites.
