How could we get our millions of male readers to pay more attention to the LPGA? The answer is obvious: Quality golf instruction. So we put six young LPGA players in a room at the Kingsmill Resort in Williamsburg, Virginia. The women sounded off on power, putting, preshot routines, etiquette, guy golfers and, yes, the importance of good form.

Every week, regular guys like you partner up with LPGA players — for a price. Pro-am fees range from $1,500 to $2,750 a day, depending on the event. Four remaining 2004 events have open spots:

  • Wachovia LPGA Classic (August 23-29), Berkleigh CC, Kutztown, Pennsylvania, 610-683-8311
  • State Farm Classic (August 31-September 5), The Rail GC, Springfield, Illinois, 217-528-5742
  • Safeway Classic (September 13-19), Columbia Edgewater CC, Portland, Oregon, 503-721-7477 ext. 10;
