OAKMONT, Pennsylvania (AP)¡ªAmerican players will look to claim a rare victory at their national championship when play begins at the U.S. Women¡¯s Open on Thursday.Ping Fairway Woods
An American victory at the tournament, once all but a certainty, now is a surprise. Cristie Kerr is the only United States player to win in the last five years. Since 1995, there have been nearly as many South Korean champions (4) as U.S. winners (5).Ping G15 Fairway Wood
When the 156-strong field tees off at a steamy and history-filled Oakmont Country Club near Pittsburgh, there will competitors from Italy, Switzerland, Venezuela, Norway, Thailand and 25 other countriesPing Driver
There will be Americans capable of winning, but not nearly as many as 30 or 40 years ago¡ªAmericans won all but five Women¡¯s Opens from 1946-1994.Ping G15 Driver
Women¡¯s golf has certainly gone more global. Of the 27 LPGA tournaments this year, fewer than half (13) will be played in the U.S., due in part to dwindling sponsorship dollars and the lack of big-name American golfers.Ping Irons
¡°As (LPGA commissioner) Mike Whan says, ¡®We¡¯re going global and get over it¡¯,¡± Juli Inkster said. ¡°So that¡¯s where we¡¯re going.¡±golf clubs
