Why do americans get salty when asians especially koreans win LPGA? First 30 yrs were dominated by white golfers, now for the last 15 years asians especially korean females dominate golf. Is it inferiority complex or just bitter salty or racism or all of the above?

salt·y (of language or humor) down-to-earth; coarse. synonyms: earthy, colorful, spicy, racy, risqué, naughty, vulgar, rude; piquant, biting i think you're painting with a pretty broad brush. Perhaps "a few Americans" or even "some Americans"... As an American that loves watching the LPGA I take offense at your description. My favorite may not have won, but I enjoyed seeing a budding star emerge, playing fantastic golf and smiling all the way in.

I supppose there is some truth in your statement. Although the families of the 4,600 Americans who lost their lives at Pusan Perimeter may disagree.

I never said ALL americans and not from this group was referring to yahoo commenters are racists towards asian accomplishments

I get beat up every time I mention these two words on this site.....I luv riling and jabbing my Merican neighbors. Heck....the LPGA elected the Imperial Wizard and KKK Queen, Carolyn Bivens, to run the LPGA from 2005-2009...nuff said. PS....welcome to the site...but if you want to stay around.......change your avatar...if you chose Ha Neul "SKY" Kim...you be really popular on the site.

Centurion. I hope that doesn't mean you are leaving. Because of a few ill advised statements. I am not to crazy about them either.

Well played....lol....I've seen this gif on another forum too. There's a guy on WRX who has become a recent Dumbo fanboy...when IGC won...he posted a gif of Homer Simpson spinning on the floor in joy.

I'm sure you're reading into something that's not there....I'm sure Anthony is just having some fun. He's too valuable to this site...his reverse karma is too strong...if not for him, we would likely have not seen 13 Korean winners this year...IMO....Lydia and Minjee are Koreans but also NZ and OZ natives too, respectively. If he would quit...... we would see a LPGA 2015 winner's roster of MW, Xtina, Lewis, Kerr and The Pink One...and that would be painful.

I think the gif means he saw this topic and decided it was better just to stay out of it... For what it's worth, of course not all or even most Americans are xenophobic, but it is disconcerting how, even when a swell kid like In Gee wins a trophy, it seems to bring the losers out of the woodwork to drop terrible comments about Koreans into stories about her. I guess my comment is: don't let internet trolls ruin your day, they ain't worth it!

Juli Inkster has played all over the world, but could not even pronounce "KLPGA" on the FOX broadcast.
