i realize this is just one list and isnt the whole truth. Some of our top players dont play in world events, its a long list and look at where we "as a whole" are sitting. I know we have the guys, talent, and heart to do better than. This list represents USA's players. I sure wish i played good enuff to do my part. we have 210 of the 480 of the spots and look how they are distributed.

It's worse for the American women.


Funny stuff, follow the link & go to women's rankings. Check out who's dead last.
 
I think it says more about the logistics of the professional tour. The US simply doesn't get the same backing of sponsors. It takes a lot of time and $ to get a US player across the globe. Where the Asian players are all able to bounce around in a closer area to catch the tourney's they use for the rankings. Look at the prize funds of the international events vs US events, and that tells you all you need to know. Kelly Fisher just won $40k in China. She could take 1st in every women's tourney in the US and not make that much together.
 
Wow, Asia's stomping the world, according to these rankings. Such a shame that our men's tour is next to nonexistant. Our pros and up and comers deserve better.
