I have an issue with requiring someone to learn english, but the LPGA will have trouble if most of their viewers cannot relate to the athletes through a common language.

When there are more winners in the LPGA named Hee Won Han than Christie Kerr, they are going to have trouble attracting viewers, and more importantly, sponsors. If Hee Won Han were to speak clear english (and she very well may), it may go a long way toward securing those sponsors, as well as the casual fan, which dare I say, most are.
