For the past few years, the growth of the LPGA Tour has been enormous. The intriguing competition combined with great golf skills has enlightened several fans. With the growth in popularity, it is quite apparent that more investments need to be made in golfers. However, in a recent word from the Commissioner, it was stated that a docuseries is in the works, apart from the already planned $100 Million investment.

Starting next year’s season, the LPGA Tour’s prize money payout will total more than $100 million. Moreover, the Tour will pay its players stipends for traveling, since it is quite costly. Though the money measures have been taken care of, the LPGA and its top-level management have set their eyes on a new goal;  expanding the fanbase of the Tour.

Earlier this year, it was announced that Men’s Golf will have Netflix Docuseries, similar to Formula One’s Drive to Survive, where the fans will be given an insight into all the drama unfolding. However, the LPGA Commissioner, Mollie Marcoux Samaan, revealed that Women’s golf also has similar plans.
