REUTERS: Prize money in women's golf pales in comparison to the riches on offer for men, but Laura Davies thinks the US$70 million up for grabs on the LPGA Tour this year represents success by any reasonable measure.
"I think we're doing great," Davies told Reuters ahead of next month's U.S. Senior Open at Pine Needles in North Carolina."At the U.S. Women's Open this year, we play for US$900,000 to the winner. Alright, the guys are getting two million, but who cares? Davies still hits the ball further than many peers half her age, flying it some 260-270 yards with her driver and sometimes not even using a tee when she wants to hit a fade, but acknowledges her short game often lets her down."And I don't hole as many putts as I used to, and these young girls are phenomenal now so I've got my work cut out, but I'm still trying."
"If I start shooting 77-plus every round then obviously I'll be gone," she said."But while I can still shoot under par and feel like I've got a chance, if I wake up on Thursday morning and feel like I can win the event, I'll keep going."
