The golfing space is quite vast with talented personalities gracing its numerous stages. But even though there are quite many fronts that golfers participate in, the PGA Tour has a significantly higher viewer base, giving it a tremendous dollar-heavy pocket compared to others. A disparity has been noted between the PGA Tour and the LPGA Tour in that regard as well.

Now, a professional from the PGA Tour has spotted a mishap in the system of the LPGA Tour, that may be a hindering factor to its exponential growth.

PGA Tour Pro points to a fault in the LPGA online system

The LPGA Tour is currently going through the Mizuho Americas Open. The event is having a phenomenal turn, especially as the young gun Rose Zhang who has been breaking records, is playing her first professional debut in the event, and is currently leading the scoreboard. But there are some remarkable differences that can be noted between this monumental event and the ongoing Memorial Tournament of the PGA Tour. The prize pool is the most noteworthy among them. Amidst these, PGA Tour professional Joel Dahmen, pointed out a slight mishap in the official online LPGA scores.

According to him, it is difficult to see the leaderboards on the official LPGA Tour page. The ongoing Mizuho Americas Open event is witnessing dramatic leaderboard changes after each round. But the difficulty to navigate and find it on the official online page is proving a headache for many.
